Acting for Critical TRANSFORMATIONS Project

The Acting for Critical Transformations (ACT) Project at Downtown High School exists to put a spotlight on our students who have historically lived in the shadows of this city; and, to promote dialogue between our students and an audience who may have never had the chance to truly see or hear our students.

In ACT students explore socials issue using social studies, science, and math; incorporate their learning into monologues, scenes, and 10-minute plays; and, finally perform those pieces in a final exhibition composed of their work.
