7 Stages’ ARTS FUSION is an in-school residency program designed to tell stories through the artistic process of devising original work. Our primary framework uses family stories to help students “shine light on the shadows,” transforming personal heritage, culture and perspective into compelling live performances.
By connecting everyday life to creative processes, participants learn essential life skills such as creative problem solving, team building, public speaking, empathy, and confidence in self expression.
A residency is more than a guest visit; it is a co-teaching partnership. Professional theatre artists work alongside classroom teachers to weave artistic value directly into the existing curriculum. Together, we guide students through a journey of: Creative Playwriting & Story Building, Improvisation & Performance Techniques, Design & Technical Application.
This immersive approach provides a unique, in-depth way to master classroom subjects while fostering a culture of collaboration and exploration.
We offer three distinct pathways, available for all grade levels. Whether you need an hourly workshop or a semester-long project, we tailor our presence to your schedule. The pathways are Literacy Arts Residency, Curriculum-Based Residencies, and Project-Based Residencies.
