THEATRE MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN YOUNG LIVES
Participation in the theatre arts builds confidence and teaches values such as teamwork, time management and commitment to a purpose. The best part is when students discover and nurture their talents as they continue to participate year after year. Now in its fourth year, Titan Drama has reached over 300 students at our small Stockton, California charter school, with courses, club meetings, special events, field trips and play productions.
We are excited to announce plans for TWO PRODUCTIONS in the 2017/2018 school year! Preparations are in the works for a fall Dinner Theatre Gala event taking place November 4, 2017, offsite at St. Andrews Lutheran Church (March Lane). In late spring 2018, we have plans to stage the full length Broadway play, The Miracle Worker.
We never charge our students fees to participate in play productions or related extracurricular events because we strongly believe that the arts must be accessible to all.
The simple fact is, putting on plays is an expensive process. Because we don't have our own performance space on campus, for the past three years we have outsourced through partnerships first with Empire Theatre (2015) and more recently with UOP's Long Theatre (2016-2017). These rental fees increase each school year which means we are all the more invested in raising funds to cover costs.
We are so fortunate to have received grants through Performing & Media Arts Boosters, Inc. and plan to seek assistance again this school year. Your contribution to Titan Drama (through Performing & Media Arts Boosters, Inc.), will help to cover the venue rental costs, licensing fees from the play publishers, costumes, props, scenery as well as transportation.
Our students have worked so hard to build Titan Drama/Media and with your support we can continue to make that dream continue for them.
