The stage is an amazing place. Acting is a life altering activity. Unfortunately, our students are lacking basic technological resources to enhance their performances.
Students at our school come from very challenging backgrounds.
We have 72% Free and Reduced Lunch and many of our kids struggle with extreme poverty. Our building was built in the early 60s and has not been updated since. The facilities are lacking many basic aspects of a functioning theater. Many Theater students specifically come to the performing arts as an outlet, a way of escape. Our program provides opportunities for students to be featured on stage and gives them a new way to confidently approach all of the challenges in their life.
My Project
This high quality microphone is exactly what we need to bring our program to the next level. Having access to this basic theatrical building block will allow our students to be heard on the very back row of our performance space. This will also empower our students by giving them the tools professional performers use.
Acting may not require microphones but enhancing the quality of a production makes kids even more proud of their work.
This project gives basic access to students who are being left behind the technological curve. Your gift will directly impact student lives and the next generation of actors.
