 Participation
in
the
visual
and
performing
arts
nurtures
self-discipline,
creativity
and
confidence.
It
provides
a
vital
context
through
which
young
people
can
learn
to
solve
problems,
communicate
ideas,
and
collaborate
with
others
to
create
a
common
vision
of
shared
value.
Whether
participating
in
a
developing
drama
or
viewing
a
performance,
young
people
can
experience
the
power
of
theatre
to
intensify
insights
and
understandings
that
contribute
to
their
daily
lives.
Theatre
captures
their
attention
and
provides
a
format
for
demonstrating
and
practicing
vital
skills
and
behaviors.
It
strengthens
character
and
emotional
intelligence.
Theatre
opens
a
door
-
one
that
cannot
be
seen
but
must
be
experienced.
Through
the
lens
of
live
theatre,
reality
is
viewed
afresh,
prejudices
revised
and
differences
seen
from
many
points
of
view.
By
stepping
into
the
world
of
drama,
young
people
can
learn
to
shape
and
redefine
life
itself.
