Summers at with Silicon Valley Shakespeare (SVS) allowed me to work with young people in a way that working in schools did not and cannot afford. Working with young people is something that has changed me. They give life. Young people don’t know anything about their lives and they’re still willing to try anything. They are one of the greatest blessings of my life.
As the founder of The Audacity Performing Arts Project, I get to see the best our young people have to offer. I don’t think “talent” is a notion that has any value. What these young people offer is their bravery and their heart. I would never ask any more of them.
