“Shopfront Theatre is important to me for so many reasons. The feeling it gives me when I am there, the feeling of performing ‘in another world’ as someone else. It is also great to know that I can be in a group of people that I get to know and that together we learn skills of acting and performing whilst having fun.”.”

“Shopfront is incredible because it is a place that allows me to take creative risks with my work. I don’t feel afraid to try, make, fail and succeed. It has been imperative to me as an emerging artist to feel safe to create and shopfront is the perfect place to do so. ”

“Shopfront has given me confidence and I made new friends. I was also noticed. At school only some kids get noticed, but Shopfront you are always noticed. ”

“The students developed skills and attitudes that the school could not provide and students were exposed to learning opportunities that challenged not only their practical skills but also their values and ideals about the world around them. We look forward to future opportunities to work with Shopfront. ”
