Project Title: After School Theatre Program
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
The Mission of The Apollo Civic Theatre engages, inspires, entertains and challenges audiences with theatrical productions that range from the classics to new works; to train and support the next generation of theatre artists; to provide arts education programs that promote life-long learning to a diverse community; and to celebrate the essential power of the theatre to illuminate our common humanity.
\nThe Spring Youth After-School Music Theatre Program will be held for 10 weeks, January-March 2023, with performances week 11. During the theatre program participants will learn voice projection, vocal technique, how to connect with an audience, scene study, script analysis, set design, set building, light design and audio visual instruction.
\nThrough the creative process in the theatre at-risk youth learn they can and are contributing to the world around them and that their perspectives are unique and valuable. Numerous evidence-based studies over the years have shown that at-risk youth who participate in the arts do better in school, are more likely to graduate from high school, attend college, find meaningful employment and be active members of their community. Through the spring youth theatre, Apollo Civic Theatre\u2019s goal is to bring together at-risk youth, the theatre and community engaging them in a unique and significant way not offered elsewhere in Martinsburg.
\nOur unserved target population is Martinsburg which is located in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia. The Martinsburg community serves a city where 27.4% live in poverty, which is well above the national average of 13%.
\nThe participants are at-risk youth and their families. The approach is to involve the youth in the theatre and bring the family in to volunteer alongside their children. Engaging the family in several areas of the theatre such as chaperoning, ushering, stage set-up, concessions, ticket sales, and public relations.\n<\/p>\n
