High-quality art consumption and education, especially relating to musical theatre, are so often only accessible to a select group of Americans \u2013 those who are wealthy, and educated, able-bodied. As a musical theatre company founded on the principles of inclusion, TUTS breaks through these traditional barriers by welcoming all Houstonians to the theatre.    <\/p>\n<p>The River, one of TUTS\u2019 education programs, gives children and young adults with disabilities in Houston a welcoming space to explore and engage with the arts. Offering courses in voice, dance, acting, and visual arts, students experience the joy of self-expression in a nurturing and encouraging environment. The River is unique in that it not only provides artistic training for young people with disabilities but also provides meaningful performance opportunities featuring them. The River&#8217;s performance troupe, comprised of children and young adults, is invited to perform at community events and TUTS mainstage productions throughout the year. While other community productions squeeze actors and actresses with disabilities into productions ultimately designed for non-disabled performers, TUTS shapes their shows to feature and showcase the abilities of all performers. From costumes to set design, TUTS designs shows to make musical Theatre a welcoming and inclusive place for actors and actresses of all abilities. In FY 2024, The River served 142 students with disabilities through 526 class placements and distributed $7,882 in need-based scholarships to nine recipients.\u202f\u202f\u202f   <\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $90,337<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Sterling Turner Foundation <\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: <br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: <br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: <\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): <br \/>\nContact First Name: <br \/>\nContact Last Name: <br \/>\nContact Title: <br \/>\nContact Phone: <br \/>\nContact Email: <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Theatre Under The Stars Legal Name (if Different): Theatre Under The Stars Inc.
