encoremediagroup.com/programs 21 STG Offers New Digital Education Program

On January 24, Seattle Theatre Group hosted 2,511 students from 49 schools and community organizations serving Title 1 students at The Paramount for a special underwritten student matinee performance of Dear Evan Hansen! Working with our partners from Melodic Caring Project, we were also able to offer a live talkback with the cast that was streamed to schools on January 28. This provided an opportunity for students to talk with the cast about the relevant themes in the show.

Sponsored in part by Premera and Columbia Bank, this matinee was the culmination of a new digital education program titled Power to Inspire, which required students to create a piece of art inspired by one of the show’s songs titled “You Will Be Found.” Students were asked to listen to the song, document their initial thoughts and feelings, write a poem or letter based on those reactions, and then create a piece of digital art inspired by their writing. One art project from each school was then selected to be posted on STG’s website and social media channels.

With a goal to further develop collaborative and critical thinking skills and a greater appreciation for the arts, the program, which focused on responsibility and awareness around social media and growing up in the digital age, allowed students to engage in healthy conversations regarding human connection and personal identity.

Your contribution makes this kind of program possible. STG is deeply grateful for the support we receive from individual donors like you, as well as corporate sponsors and grant funders. Your commitment enables us to continue offering special access to performances through education programs such as this one. Thank you!

30 SEATTLE THEATRE GROUP STG at a Glance One of STG’s core values is to serve as stewards of Seattle’s historic Paramount, Moore, and Neptune Theatres, and part of our commitment to keeping these spaces healthy and vibrant is to welcome a new generation of visitors and patrons to experience their magic firsthand. That’s why STG is proud to offer free Historic Theatres Tours, led by members of our well-versed volunteer staff.

“Over 450,000 patrons pass through the doors of The Paramount each year. These free tours give the public a chance to learn more about this historic Theatre while giving them a glimpse behind the scenes.” - Josh LaBelle, Executive Director of Seattle Theatre Group

Tours of the Paramount Theatre take place on the first Saturday of every month and guests should meet in front of the main entrance, on the corner of 9th and Pine. Tours of the Moore Theatre are the second Saturday of every month and guests should meet in front of the main entrance, on the corner of 2nd and Virginia. Neptune Tours are the third Saturday of every month and guests should meet in front of the main entrance, on the corner of NE 45th St. & Ave. All tours begin at 10 a.m.

Additionally, Seattle Theatre Group is able to schedule tours upon request for student groups ages 7 and up. This is an excellent way for students to experience the technical aspects of the stage, take a behind-the-scenes look at backstage operations, and get an introduction to the history of the building.

For more information on STG’s Historic Theatre Tours, and to access virtual tours of the Paramount, Moore, and Neptune, please visit STGPresents.org/tours Bob Cerelli on this page by photos
