EMPOWERING VOICES
Empowering Voices celebrating our 10th anniversary was joyous! One of the highlights was our Rising Star Award recipient Rosemarie Manzo singing "She Used to Be Mine" from "Waitress". It's easy to hear why she is a star!

Theater is utilized as a vehicle for empowerment. Participants explore topics, improvise, study play-writing, learn acting skills, and perform, giving them a voice. 

​Program participants gain experience with theater arts in addition to developing communication, teamwork, and leadership skills that extend beyond the time they spend with IlluminArt. Discussion guides are created for audiences and staff of organizations with whom we collaborate to also serve as a resource for information on these pressing topics.
  • Leading improvisational workshops with all age groups, engaging schools and community groups to develop and write new performance pieces on topics of importance to them, offering inspiration, education and enlightenment.   
​
  • Training peer educators to be experts on a topic and communicate through theatrical performance as they and audiences recognize their own behaviors and how they impact others.
 
  • Conducting school residencies and after-school programs in play-writing and acting focusing on individual and artistic growth while enhancing academic performance in conjunction with Common Core Standards. 
 
  • Staging and producing existing plays that focus on topics with social impact and the potential to be a catalyst for change.
