mixed community

Well bloggy world,

Adaptive Arts can say with smiling faces that we made it through our first fundraiser! Now we can breathe (and blog) again.

we were so overjoyed to see the outpouring of support from the indie theater community as well as the educational community in new york.

It makes one wonder why these two groups don't mix more. If we get theater into the schools in some form, any form, not only are we helping to create the next generation of theater practitioners, but theater audiences. If we get educators, principals, administration to the theater, they can see its relevance and influence. If we get students to to the theater we can get them inspired.

we are all about the intermingling of communities. for our productions it happens to be individuals with disabilities and your "average" theatergoer, but just think of the possibilities! A big question in the indie theater world is how to bring in new audiences and we think the educational community in new york might be a great start...
