Business Plan
We would like to offer educational theater programing in all the 5 boroughs of NY. At the moment we are only able to offer our services to Manhattan and Brooklyn. We would like to hire more employees, especially theater artist who need work. We'd like to offer bilingual programs in areas that are underserved. Investors should invest in us because we are very unique and successful in our approach to arts education. Our approach is based on the Michael Chekhov technique of using the entire body, full gestures and choral teams. We work with grades 2-5 and are able to adapt our curriculum to any school population. All students are able to participate, regardless of ability. We offer push-in programming and align with school's goals. We offer a varied catalogue of stories and plays in our library that include Shakespeare and Homer. We have been successful working with bilingual populations and students with disabilities.

Self Identified Competition
Arts Connection Marquis Studio Dreamyard Project Our programming is different than our competitors due to the fact that we triangulate our teaching practice. We offer halfway in our residencies a Lecture Demo, where professional actors perform a scene to the students. Students give feedback as Directors to shape and correct the scene using knowledge that they have obtained up to that point in the residency. We access what the students know and don't know. We use this loop to inform our practice as teaching artist and how we can better support the students.
