  • Disney Musicals in Schools Puts Students in the Spotlight Onstage at Overture Center for the Arts
    MEDIA ALERT For immediate release: Friday, April 20, 2018 Contact: Sarah Knab | 608.258.4438 DISNEY MUSICALS IN SCHOOLS PUTS STUDENTS IN THE SPOTLIGHT ONSTAGE AT OVERTURE CENTER FOR THE ARTS Overture Center is among 18 arts organizations in the world collaborating with Disney Musicals in Schools. (Madison, Wis.) - On May 23, more than 180 elementary students from Madison will have the extraordinary opportunity to sing and dance onstage at Overture Center for the Arts as the result of a grant awarded to Overture by Disney. The grant from Disney enables Overture to offer the Disney Musicals in Schools program to three new schools in Madison this year: Frank Allis Elementary School, Leopold Elementary School and Nuestro Mundo Community School. The program is designed to create sustainable theater program in elementary schools. Through the program, participating schools produce a Disney KIDS musical in their school community and join in a culminating performance at Overture. “Disney Musicals in Schools addresses one of our biggest goals – creating equitable access to the arts,” said Ted DeDee, Overture’s president and CEO. “Through the program, we can create meaningful and sustainable musical theater opportunities for students who would not otherwise be able to experience it. By being immersed in creating art with their peers and discovering the joys and confidence that comes from the process of learning to perform, students are making memories and developing skills to last a lifetime. In addition, through the structure of the program teachers learn and develop their skills, setting up for long term musical theater programs at their schools.” The selected schools participated in a 17-week musical theater residency, led by a team of teaching artists trained by Overture and Disney Theatrical Productions, at no cost.
