Abstract Details

2017, Master of Arts, University of Akron, Theatre Arts-Arts Administration.
While observing at-risk high school students at a Cleveland-area arts education organization, it became evident that stress may act as a barrier to developing confidence in teens. This project contains research to support and methods to creating an original theatre curriculum that reduces stress and increases confidences in late adolescents. The methods include identifying how confidence is measured in adolescents as well as collecting existing theatre curricula with learning objectives that promote confidence. These in combination with identifying existing framework(s) used to reduce stress; all informed the development of a theatre curriculum that could breakdown the barrier of stress in teenagers while building self-esteem.
