Mission and Overview: The mission of North Carolina Theatre’s Theatre 4 Change Program is to use theatre games, exercises, role-playing tactics and processing to heighten awareness and encourage individual change in conflict situations and their resolutions for the youth population of the Raleigh area ages 4th-9th grade.
Location: Boys & Girls Clubs, W.E.B. Dubois Center and other community centers.
Students: The youth involved are groups of 15-20 students gathered by the individual centers. The youth target for the project is the underserved youth and general students of Raleigh in grades 4-9.
Facilitator/Member: The program involves one director/facilitator. This individual leads the workshop sessions and directs the student actors in the development of performance material for the workshops. The current directors/facilitator is Heather Patterson King, Acting Instructor for the North Carolina Theatre, and former director of the ACT Out Ensemble social-issue theatre company of Indianapolis. The actors are student actors from the NCT Conservatory and Triangle area trained in conflict resolution theatre.

Testimonial:
"If I can help them to understand it is always better to think before you act, and that physical fighting and slanderous comments are never the right way to try and solve a problem, then I feel like I've made the best contribution I can to my community and to the world."
- Allison Bonner (Student Actor, 16, Theatre 4 Change)
