InnerActions
InnerActions is a one-hour, multi-media community outreach performance written and choreographed for high school audiences. Their goal: Prevention through Inspiration.
Through the creation of a ground-breaking new format in theater production, the performance melds two artistic mediums into a single school assembly show geared towards an audience of their peers. One is a traditional stage show with Hip-Hop, tap, acrobatics, and spoken word. The other is a fully-integrated video which interweaves powerful cinematic images that connect on a passionate level to the teen experience. What sets this show apart is the use of a language that teens are familiar with - Hip-Hop. For the last two decades we have watched Hip-Hop go from street corners to prime time television, becoming the voice of this generation. If you want students to be fully engaged in the message, you must learn to speak their language.
InnerActions is a fantastic program that you can use with your students to encourage and support them to follow their dreams and passions.
