With generous support from the John T. Vucurevich Foundation and the Sheldon Reese Foundation, BHCT is pleased to be able to offer, at no cost, workshops and short-term residencies in creative dramatics and developmental drama, working in collaboration with classroom teachers. These are tailor-made to address specific needs of students and classes, and include replicable lesson plans that the teacher can implement and refine long after the residency is over. The cross-curricular benefits of drama in the classroom are well-documented, and extend far beyond performance. In addition to breathing life into academic subjects, the process of creative collaboration develops critical thinking; builds listening, communication and concentration skills; and can enhance tolerance and empathy.
