I work with an All-County High School Theatre Group in a Title I district, all students in our county qualify for free breakfast and lunch. CS provides all 8th-12th graders within the Public Schools of Robeson County with an afterschool education in the theatre arts by participation in a variety of dramatic musical and dramatic productions.
Having a regular creative outlet through CS is not just part of a well-rounded education — it is essential for a student's emotional health and well-being.
CS produces one show yearly that is performed for the public as well as students in our school system. These students are full of energy and absolutely love the time they spend with each other. These students work so hard in each production, I want to help make them feel special in any way I can.
Our students not only learn about the theatre arts but also reinforce their literacy and speaking skills while building relationships with other students throughout the county.
My Project
Our 2020 spring musical was supposed to be held in April, but due to the Coronavirus, it has been postponed until November. Please help me make this production we have waited so long for absolutely amazing!
One of our biggest challenges producing this upcoming classic musical will be acquiring some costumes for the actresses in the show to wear!
This past winter my theatre arts students at my high school took the time to make some of the needed costumes for my actresses, but we need other costuming items for the production. My actresses need petticoats, 1950's style skirts, and accessories to wear for our fall production. I am so excited to be able to provide my students with quality costumes for this upcoming musical! Please help me give my students beautiful and authentic costumes that will give them the confidence to entertain our audience!
