Downstage Arts Hosts 4th Annual Teen Cohort Showcase Hosted By Hannah Kato
The event is on Monday, May 20, 2024.
The 4th Annual Teen Cohort Showcase and Fundraiser will be hosted by Broadway star Hannah Kato and feature all of our Teen Cohort members.
This year, we've enrolled seventeen teens (our biggest class to date) in our flagship program, The Teen Cohort, in which we mentor high school juniors and seniors in their college and theatre conservatory application and audition process-all the way through decision day and beyond.
This annual showcase and fundraiser will celebrate the students' accomplishments, talents, and stories as they write the next chapters of their artistic lives. We invite you to join us in this celebration and show your support for the future of the performing arts.
In fact, every dollar raised from this donation-based event will go directly to continuing the Downstage Arts's mission of building bridges over economic barriers in the performing arts, striving to create a more diverse, more inclusive future for all artists.
