Philosophy & Mission

​We believe that Performing Arts are vital to the constitution of a healthy human being
We believe that Theater Arts Education should be accessible and free to all students
We believe that students should be career ready and technically trained for one of California's largest industries
We believe that acting is an exploration of the human condition that develops soft skills such as listening, artistic sense, non-verbal communication, storytelling, enthusiasm,  discipline and generosity
We strive to empower every student voice, especially the quiet, the marginalized, and the shy
We aim to deliver on our mission through:
  • Performance based creation and discovery
  • Partnerships and internships with local Theaters such as Playhouse Merced and Merced Theater as well as industry specialist such as the San Francisco Mime Troupe 
  • Articulation with Merced Community College and workshops with Fresno State
  • Active Club and Parent participation
  • Extracurricular opportunities, educational tours, field trips, competitions and membership in Troupe #5722 of The International Thespian Society
  • College, Summer Camp, Scholarship, Award and Grant exposure through the International Thespian Society and a vast collection of links available on this site
  • And lastly through a commitment to continual program growth in all of the above outlined areas AND die-hard dedication to strengthening of student empowerment through voice
