THE CHAMPIONS PROJECT
For individuals with intellectual, developmental and/or physical disabilities, THE CHAMPIONS PROJECT is dedicated to providing a specially crafted and inclusive curriculum for all students of all ability levels ranging in age from 5-18.
OVERVIEW
Discovering a place where you truly feel a sense of belonging can be a challenging journey. While many youth theatre programs cater effortlessly to typically developing children and young adults, most programs are ill-prepared or hesitant to accommodate those with unique needs.
​
Our program provides these individuals with a platform to explore and engage in the world of theatre. Through a holistic approach that combines acting, improvisation, storytelling, and stagecraft; participants have the opportunity to develop their artistic skills, express themselves, build confidence, and foster meaningful connections with peers.
