Founders Academy Theatre

Within our theatre program, every student can find a place to contribute. From technical jobs, such as set building and painting, to lighting and sound, our students take leadership roles within the production. They work together in teams to learn new skills and help create mentoring relationships. Students who participate in our theatre program come from grades 6-12 and from diverse backgrounds. They join our production with a range of varying experiences, and the members help to mentor the younger ones. Through our practices they learn the skills necessary for running the production themselves. Students take up leadership roles within every area of the play’s production. They learn to manage the backstage organization. They learn how to run the lighting system. They take up the leadership of the production. Despite our tight budget, students learn valuable lessons!
