InterAct Theatre School’s Winter 2023 Annual Showcase in Santa Barbara
We proudly presented our second annual showcase, titled ‘No Second Chance,’ which transcended a mere show to become an extraordinary event and a joyous celebration. As a distinguished theater school, we strive to provide a comprehensive range of classes accompanied by performance opportunities at the conclusion of each 10-week term. Remarkably, even our youngest students actively participate, fostering a spirit of teamwork that lies at the heart of theater itself.
The success of this grand event was a result of the collaborative efforts of numerous individuals. Our dedicated team of dynamic teachers expertly guided us through the meticulous rehearsal process, while parents generously assisted backstage. Furthermore, we were privileged to collaborate with the accomplished professionals at the Marjorie Luke Theatre, whose invaluable support contributed significantly to the realization of our vision.
We emphasize that InterAct is not merely a production company; we are an esteemed educational institution where our students are fully engaged in the entire creative process of crafting this remarkable showcase. We embarked on an artistic journey by reimagining the original 2005 ‘No Second Chance’ script, incorporating fresh ideas and infusing the essence of Santa Barbara to add a local flair. Notably, various characters underwent transformation, each possessing a distinct role and purpose, with inspiration drawn from Bond movies and a plethora of original songs.
In line with our commitment to inclusivity, this captivating event welcomed students of all ages and proficiency levels, as we firmly believe that theater should be accessible to everyone. We take great pride in announcing the successful launch of our scholarship program earlier this academic year, in collaboration with the esteemed Equal Learning Fund. The positive response we received fuels our anticipation for our next annual showcase in 2024, marking the beginning of an exciting journey.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all those who contributed to the resounding success of this event.
Thank you all for your unwavering support and dedication.
