Broadway in South Africa (BSA) is a new, not-for-profit organization that works to provide the average child from underadvantaged South African communities, with little or no access to a formal arts education, the tools of self-awareness and self-empowerment through art, so that they may begin to discover a future beyond disease and poverty. Ultimately, BSA?s ongoing work is designed to have lasting effects in the lives of these children, as opposed to single, disjointed efforts.
