Dramatic Adventure Theatre's Impact

Community Abroad

Dramatic Adventure Theatre collaborates with and empowers local independent artists and young talent from disenfranchised communities. DAT engages both young talent and local artists in workshops so there can be an exchange of artistic knowledge. Playwriting and acting skills are taught to the young talent, while more complex materials are shared with local artists. DAT desires to become a part of local communities in significant and tangible ways. Oftentimes DAT will team up with local not-for-profits/NGOs and help those organizations raise awareness for the things they do by participating in projects that assist them in achieving their objectives.

Audience

Dramatic Adventure Theatre offers its audience a chance to get involved on a global scale. The audience is consistently informed of each project's progress and invited to attend all events related to those projects. In many cases a play will be developed while abroad. This play will be brought back to the US in order to share this dramatic adventure with our audience. These productions are filled with the exotic energy, unique experiences, and special voices encountered abroad. We share stories that illuminate the unfamiliar in a familiar way. We also encourage our audience to literally journey along with us as Passengers to select locations in an effort to engage with peoples and places first hand. This provides unique opportunities to see productions being developed on the ground and to be a part of the work being done!

Traveling Artists

Dramatic Adventure Theatre's traveling artists have the amazing opportunity to participate in uniquely designed projects, to experience cultures that are at the same time foreign and familiar. The lessons learned from these journeys have proven to be invaluable to them as performers and human beings. DAT organizes opportunities for traveling artists to workshop with local artists, teach the skills they possess, and participate in community service. This is an education and experience no theatre artist should be without.
