Behaviour change cannot be effected by simply expressing feelings; it can be effected by evoking dialogue and thought brought about by expressing feelings.
Arts Overview
The Performing Arts are universal. All cultures use performance to entertain, to educate, and to express emotion. In areas ravaged by the HIV/AIDS pandemic, however, it is often difficult for children to give expression to the harsh realities they face each day. We believe providing a child with the opportunity to safely express his or her deepest feelings has a profoundly positive and lasting effect.
The TRIAD Performing Arts Program strives to empower youth with the necessary tools to make their voices heard on and off the stage. Our goal is to promote healthy and positive behavior using performance as a rehearsal for life. TRIAD’s innovative curriculum is carefully crafted around the specific needs of our partner communities, and offers vulnerable youth an open forum to safely voice their sadness, struggles, dreams, and desires. We integrate music, dance, drama and creative writing to deliver crucial life lessons in an entertaining and exciting format. Very simply, we believe kids learn more when they are having fun.
