Do yourselves a favor…take your kids to the theatre. No, I don’t mean a movie theater, I mean LIVE theatre – with ushers and a curtain and real-live actors up on the stage. Theatre has the power to change lives, and while in L.A., you should check out the Center Theatre Group.
Two locations (three theatres): downtown at the Music Center (the Ahmanson Theatre and the newly refurbished Mark Taper Forum) or in Culver City at the Kirk Douglas Theatre. We work with the great folks at CTG (as we like to call it) to help them bring at-risk and disadvantaged young people (usually students from the Title One high schools in the greater Los Angeles area) to see CTG’s plays and musicals. The feedback is amazing – the kids are mesmerized and enthralled and incredibly enthusiastic.
Try it! You’ll like it! Although you may have a hard time tearing your eyes away from your kids faces in order to watch the action on stage...
