DARE 2 INSPIRE
Theatre for Young Artists
Dare 2 Inspire aims to make cutting-edge and meaningful theatre experiences accessible to all students in the area. Dare 2 Inspire seeks to create an environment where all children feel welcomed,
empowered, respected, and supported by adults as well as their peers, using theatrical and pro-social education in addition to the creation of vibrant full-scale productions, the dual platforms offer
facilitation of this experience. Through our educational methods and the process of our productions, we envision helping create a new generation of confident, articulate, dynamic, and altruistic young
people who will make positive impacts on their communities, whether they choose a career in the performing arts or otherwise.
