Ep 221 | What the Stage Teaches That Screens Can’t

From Voices United in Education · 31:29

Show by Escambia County Public Schools

In a world increasingly shaped by screens and AI, theatre gives students something technology can’t: the thrill of creating a live experience in a room. In this episode, Booker T Washington High School Theatre Teacher Hannah Simmons & Tate High School Theatre Teacher, Elizabeth Mealy share their passion around integrating theatre into the heart of their high schools. Learn how joining a theatre program can build greater self-awareness, empathy, emotional intelligence, camaraderie and even school pride in students and school communities. They discuss how tradition, self-ownership, and live performance are shaping the next generation of storytellers and why it’s important to have opportunities to try on different versions of your personality.Guests: Hannah Simmons & Elizabeth Mealy IG https://www.instagram.com/tatetheatre/ | https://www.instagram.com/btwhsdrama/ | https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057319933841 Learn more about Escambia County School District: https://www.escambiaschools.org/Find additional links: https://www.voicesunitedineducation.com/podcast-episodesHost: Meredith Hackwith Edwards
