Kiss Theatre Co

At KISS Theatre Company, we believe in the transformative power of theatre to inspire, educate, and empower children.  KISS Theatre Company is a 501 (C) 3 non-profit children’s educational theatre and enrichment program that strives to create a safe space for all children ages 5 through 12th grade, regardless of race, gender, creed, mental or physical disability, and/or LGBT status. Students gain lifelong educational values such as teamwork, empathy, responsibility, community service, and creativity through the study and performance of theatrical arts including, but not limited to, drama, music, dance, technical theatre and design.

Why Support Us?

• Boosts Academic Achievement: Research shows that children involved in performing arts are more likely to excel academically. They often develop enhanced cognitive, motor, and social skills.
• Builds Confidence and Self-Expression: The performing arts provide a platform for kids to express themselves creatively, which can significantly boost their self-confidence. This confidence often extends to other areas of their lives, helping them tackle challenges with greater assurance.
• Enhances Emotional Intelligence: Engaging in the performing arts helps children explore a wide range of emotions and characters, fostering empathy and a deeper understanding of themselves and others.
• Develops Teamwork and Communication Skills: Many performing arts activities require collaboration, teaching kids the value of teamwork, communication, and mutual respect. These skills are essential in both school and future careers.
• Provides a Creative Outlet: In today's tech-driven world, performing arts offer a much needed creative outlet for children, allowing them to explore their imagination and creativity.

Your generous contributions will directly support:

• Scholarships: Ensuring that all children, regardless of financial background, have access to our programs.
• Production Costs: Covering expenses for costumes, sets, lighting, and sound to create magical performances.
• Facility Improvements: Maintaining and upgrading our theatre space to provide a safe and welcoming environment.
