Full Circle Theater Collaborative (FCTC) is partnering with King Street Center (KSC) to address arts education gaps in Burlington. We plan to reduce access barriers to our programming for low-income families by allowing children to participate for free. Through the 24-25 school year, FCTC will pilot an after-school theater arts programming at KSC for 10 weeks each semester (fall & winter/spring.) Students will devise an original piece of theater to perform for their families and community at their Family Dinner Night and at one of the black box theaters in downtown Burlington. If there is student interest, during FCTC’s 2025 summer programming, we will host KSC 10-14-year-olds for one-week midsummer as cast members in FCTC’s junior production, culminating in a weekend of performances at Main Street Landing.
