YAP (Young Actor's Project): Div 8-12

https://youngactorsproject.ca/

The Young Actors Project introduces kids to the art of acting (approx. 25,000 students per year).  But what else does it do?

Drama empowers kids with self-confidence.  Kids need to believe in their creative ideas and have the bravery to express them in front of others.  YAP school workshops make that kind of risk-taking fun, not scary.  Students communicate characters, feelings, and stories, which increase their focus and exercise their imaginations.   They develop trust through cooperation and collaboration with their peers – learning to accept and build on each other’s creative ideas. These are skills required not just for the stage – but for the stage of life.
