My Project

This project aims to raise funds for sewing machines and spike tape to support the Theatre program. Theatre students often work behind the scenes as well as on stage, and having the right tools is essential for learning and producing quality performances. Currently, our program lacks basic equipment needed for costume creation and stage management. By providing sewing machines and spike tape, we can give students a more complete, hands-on theatre experience.

Sewing machines will allow students to learn essential skills such as how to sew seams, follow patterns, and construct costumes.

These are not only valuable in theatre but also teach problem-solving, patience, and creativity. In class, students will have the chance to design, cut, and stitch their own pieces, learning the process from start to finish. Having working machines will also increase independence and confidence, as students won’t have to rely on outside help for costume needs.

Spike tape is another important tool in theatre. It is used to mark stage positions, helping actors know where to stand and making scene transitions run more smoothly. With proper tape, students can learn the professional standards of blocking and stage management. Overall, this project will create a more professional and engaging learning environment for theatre students and give them practical skills they can take beyond the classroom.
