Many volunteer opportunities available for school credit.

An additional bonus during rehearsals is that Kristin Huffman, Artistic Director and Broadway veteran books artists to work with the students, such as the original "Sandy" in the Broadway production of Grease during last year's show, Carole Demas. Break out classes such as stage combat, lighting and set design, and other activities related the social justice nonprofit are offered. "Our template for summer productions is unique! When we partnered with the Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk our youth participated in beach cleanups and the marine debris was used to make our sets, props and costumes. We hope our students enjoy being in a show elbow to elbow with our Broadway pros as well as learn about their community and how they can be leaders. We were also just one of 12 arts organizations in Connecticut to be awarded a grant by the National Endowment for the Arts. This helps us keep our prices low and to help with travel for some of our in need students" says Huffman.
