Theatre Interns
TEAMS Theatre uses nontraditional
communication to spark people's interest and involvement in health issues. Teens
learn to use theatre as a teaching technique for promoting wellness and community
awareness.
During their training students work with scientists and actors to develop skits and
learn presentation skills.
 The human body's remarkable capabilities and the effects of unhealthy
practices are presented using memorable theatre techniques-- humor, music, and improvisation.
Participating youth have co-developed, rehearsed and presented:
Healthy Fairy
Tales for young audiences
Monologues about teen health issues
You Are What You Eat: Game Show for youngsters
Ask Alice, a twenty minute play about making wise choices
Buffy the Vampire Sprayer, a ten minute play about making wise choices
Students report they have fun, make friends,
learn about acting and performing, gain confidence in front of audiences, and learn
more about the body.
