Colorado ACTS empowers children to develop theatre skills to the full extent of their talents and abilities and brings quality theatre to the community. Every student in every class gets an on-stage role. Support is needed to keep the classes affordable as we expand after-school programs to low-income students.
We are excited to be doing this from a new location! The space is bigger, allowing us more working space and flexibility between classes still in progress and classes in performance. Although the space is great, it is not ready yet ready to host performances. We have plans and people in place to make it ready, but it will be expensive. We appreciate your support in this endeavor.
"Colorado ACTS has boosted the social confidence of all of my children, as well as providing a safe, healthy place to explore their creativity, and communication skills. All three of my teens are now competent communicators and comfortable speaking in front of groups of peers as well as adults. Thank you CO ACTS!"
"Absolutely fantastic program that is much needed in this world. The arts are of the utmost importance, especially when centered around children."
"My child has grown in all areas and we feel fortunate to have Colorado ACTS in our lives. It allows for students to develop skills, strengthen talents and develop new ones. It is affordable and from the communities perspective produces shows that are quality and affordable for families. Thanks!"
"Participant has social anxiety and general anxiety in addition to sensory processing challenges. Colorado ACTS was a wonderful experience for her."
"I loved that after day 1 of going to classes (my son) felt confident about being there. Thank you for helping show him his dyslexia doesn't stop him from doing great things."
"You are amazing. What an excellent production! I so enjoyed the play last night, was once again shocked at the quality of what can be pulled together in two months! Mostly I am extremely thankful that our child has a safe place to spend time building confidence. Our child struggles with language and learning and a lot of other social type things. This is such an amazing way for our child to be around great, accepting people and be able to work toward an end result in something that is fun and rewarding. My husband and I are eternally grateful. Thank you for your hard work!!!"
Thank-you
