Summer at the Center for High Risk Teens

07.25.16

Segerstrom Center for the Arts just kicked off the 25th anniversary of its Summer at the Center (SATC), program for high- risk and underserved teens through July 29. The program offers high school-age teens facing personal challenges a safe environment in which to grow, trust and develop self-esteem and positive goals. SATC professional teaching artists use elements of musical theater to engage participants in fun, creative and productive lessons and exercises. Following their hard work during the two-week program, the students will perform a Broadway revue-style show in Samueli Theater on Saturday, July 30 at 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

The performances are free and open to the public; no reservations are required. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. More information is available here.

Summer at the Center students come from homes and lives that include substance, mental and physical abuse, abandonment, social problems, gang affiliation and learning disabilities. SATC is a rigorous and disciplined experience that helps them to build critically important life skills. Their tools are collaborative and interactive lessons in singing, dancing and acting. Guest speakers, such as musicians, actors, directors and program alumni, reinforce what the students are learning in their daily sessions.

Following SATC, participants will return to Segerstrom Center to attend a performance of Beautiful – The Carole King Musical as part of a special reunion. For many of the students, it will be their first experience seeing a live Broadway show.

600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa. 714.556.2121.
