It was a successful show! By the end of the last performances we were able to SELL out the entire space with NO seats left. Everyone one involved had really felt the shift in their hearts, we really gave the community a new name in education-THEATRE! It left younger adults there feeling as there are younger kids out there who care adn want the positive change in education. Big thanks to DoSomething, now we're collborating on our second script to produce and involve even more students from the community!

10why it's important:
It matters so much to me to see students from my neighborhood graduate from high school. There is no reason for anybody to quit with the resources and help that we have today, it is an epidemic that needs a cure.
the plan of action:
We have already started a non-profit organization with emphasis in education. A script has been written by one of the members, in hope of producing a theatre production about drop-outs to display and inform the public about the horrific dilemma. Any benefits or donations we make will go towards the organization to help fund future projects that impact education.
how you can get involved:
We need people to start looking for ways to have the play funded, and we need light designers, stage designers etc. All the resources that anybody can give us to use would help so much.
