Community Outreach
In the last couple of years, we have had some exciting outreach projects, such as our production of Bringing Life to the Death Penalty. This was a series of originally written scenes intended to raise awareness about the presence of the death penalty issue on the November 2006 ballot. The production took place the night before voting and not only had a great turnout but also received attention from numerous local television stations. Also, we have collaborated with the Student Labor Action Coalition to put on a night of art called Art Beats for Heart Beats in celebration of Human Rights Day. Outreach now also holds annual food drives and holiday caroling at a local retirement community. In the coming year, we hope to build on our already solid foundation. We want to reach out to other parts of the community and use theatre as a tool to educate and get people involved. We always need people to help out with brainstorming, organizing, and performing, so if you're interested or have any questions, please contact Becky Chicoine.

UTA seeks to build relationships with the greater comunity. Through community outreach, we hope to bring theatre to non-traditional audiences, address pertinent social topics, and work toward a socially just world.
