The FSPS was founded in 1985 by Raye Lynn Mercer. The FPAC was created in 1991.  The combined organization has music, dance and drama departments as well as a touring performance troupe.  The FPAC promotes the performing arts and nurtures and develops young talent through private lessons and by a classroom curriculum. The organization serves to develop talent of all levels, offering courses in music, drama and dance. Classes are conducted at the 38 Main Street location.

Performances at the new Black Box

An exciting addition to the FSPS family is the Black Box, the recently opened venue for many of the performances put on by the FPAC.  Other FPAC shows are held at the beautiful auditorium at the new Franklin High School.

Electric Youth maintains a broad and deep repertoire; including rock, Broadway hits, and American pop music.  Members of Electric Youth perform locally in Franklin, MA and other Massachusetts venues. They also travel abroad, having recently finished their seventh European tour.  The 2008 tour included performances in a variety of indoor and outdoor venues in Italy, Austria, and Slovenia.  The 2008 tour concluded in July 2008 at an outdoor performance at Italy’s Lake Como.

Bravo, Electric Youth!
