Our impact reaches far beyond the stage — into the heart of our community.

This season, together we launched Camp DNA, welcomed 25+ families through Parents’ Day Out, reached 130+ students through academy theatre clubs, granted 62 wishes through the Holiday Wish Tree, and created new ways for our community to gather, learn, and connect.
