The KCACTF/LORT ASPIRE Leadership Intensive is designed to cultivate a new generation of artistic and administrative leaders for the American Theatre with a focus on engaging people of color, women, and members of other groups that are consistently underrepresented in the field. One student from Region 5 will be selected to attend the National Festival in April to engage in topics concerning Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion as well as a dynamic weeklong curriculum designed to explore leadership in the performing arts, investigate institutional challenges in the profession, and create professional networking opportunities in the field.
This event is an opportunity for students at all levels of experience who are interested in theatre arts leadership. Students will be asked to prepare a preliminary proposal for a new theatre company. Information will be assembled and displayed at the Festival Expo. At the festival, students will participate in workshops with nationally recognized arts leaders, engage in round table discussions with other participants, and make a mock pitch to potential donors.
