Organizations Filed Purposes:
GUIDE A NEW GENERATION OF PERFORMING ARTISTS AS THEY LEARN FROM - AND COLLABORATE WITH - OUR WORLD-CLASS FACULTY OF WORKING PROFESSIONALS. WE USE AND DISCOVER INNOVATIVE TEACHING TECHNIQUES THAT IGNITE CURIOSITY, INSPIRE CONFIDENCE, AND PROMOTE RISK-TASKING BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THE WORLD NEEDS ART MADE BY BOLD, COMPASSIONATE PEOPLE WHO ARE A CREDIT TO THE COMMUNITY THEY SERVE.
DESPITE THE DIFFICULTIES OF THE PANDEMIC, DURING THE PERIOD FROM OCTOBER 1, 2019 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2020, THE PERFORMING ARTS PROJECT WAS ABLE TO CARRY OUT OUR MISSION BY PROVIDING CUTTING EDGE PERFORMING ARTS TRAINING. IN JUNE AND JULY, APPROXIMATELY 130 STUDENTS ATTENDED OUR THREE SUMMER INTENSIVES. HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS SPENT FIVE-WEEKS WITH US STUDYING ACTING, DANCE, VOICE, WRITING AND MORE. DURING THESE PROGRAMS, WHICH WERE MOVED FROM RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS TO ONLINE ZOOM PROGRAMS, STUDENTS HAD THE CHANCE TO WORK WITH OVER 30 PERFORMANCE PROFESSIONALS FROM THE BROADWAY AND FILM COMMUNITY. THE PROGRAMS INCLUDED INFORMATION PANELS AS WELL. TOPICS INCLUDED: PREPARATION FOR A PROFESSIONAL CAREER IN THE ARTS IN NEW YORK AND PREPARATION FOR COLLEGE APPLICATION AND AUDITION PROCESS. OUR FACULTY ALSO PARTICIPATED IN MASTER CLASSES AND AUDITIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY IN CITIES INCLUDING ATLANTA, NEW YORK, HOUSTON, AUSTIN, SAN FRANCISCO, DAYTON, LOS ANGELES, PHILADELPHIA AND CHICAGO. WE HELD ONLINE FUNDRAISING ACTIVITES USING THE WEBSITE CHARITY BUZZ, WHERE BIDDERS WERE ABLE TO GET TICKETS AND BACKSTAGE TOURS TO BROADWAY PRODUCTIONS. WE ALSO HELD A SHOW WHERE PERFORMERS SHARED THEIR PERFORMANCE CHALLENGES AND RESILIENCE IN ATTEMPTING THESE PERFORMANCES AGAIN. .
