Student Theater Advancing Growth and Empowerment (STAGE)
PBHA’s Student Theater Advancing Growth and Empowerment (STAGE) aims to help 3rd and 4th graders break out of their shells, explore self-confidence, creativity, and grow upon their knowledge of theater. Standard lessons look like a bunch of games and icebreakers, followed by a lesson plan that teaches elements of theater (such as plot, character, setting), and creative time dedicated to the writing of a complete play.
Historically, STAGE also hosts STAGE spectacular where students are given the space to explore roles in theater and creative experiences such as a cappella, directing, improve, dance, costume design. STAGE wants to set the stage and create an environment where all students are confident and feel welcomed and excited to express themselves. Our team is currently made of directors, a main teacher, and a treasurer. Transit wise, we commute via T together!
Mission
Harvard STAGE (Student Theater Advancing Growth and Empowerment) is an organization dedicated to empowering Boston and Cambridge youth through the performing arts. STAGE teachers foster students’ growth through increasing students’ self-confidence and enhancing students’ self-expression and communication skills through allowing them to explore their artistic talents and interests.
-
Recently, trainings are very similar to lesson plans where volunteers (teachers) are invited to express themselves and explore creativity as well. Alongside this, STAGE is very passionate about creating a leading team that not only just lead well together but are also friends—where all members are excited to be involved and support one another.
