Conduct Student Workshops. Handful Players conducted a total of 985 free performingarts workshops providing youth from under-resourced communities with the opportunity to express themselves creatively and interact positively with other youth and adults. Each workshop was led by professional teaching artists who instructed the children on storytelling, theater, spoken word, dance, and puppetry/mask making. Handful Players worked with 17 talented San Francisco Bay Area artists, 82% of whom are of color, to conduct workshops for the children and accompany them in performances. By ensuring that the majority of our staff reflect the populations we serve, we are maintaining our commitment to providing mentorship, culturally relevant content and creating avenues for youth and families to relate directly to our programs.2. Reach Out to Youth from Under-Resourced Communities. Handful Players worked with a total of 1,225 children ages 4-15 in 2023; most are BIPOC children living or going to school in San Franciscos under-resourced communities. In 2023, Handful Players reached the milestone of working with 10,000 since our start in 2007. The youth often have little exposure or access to cultural events and theater. We tailored our programs to support academic and social emotional learning needs of students while also preparing them to confidently take stage and have pride in their performances. Our teachers maintained flexible lesson plans so they could adapt to the immediate need of students for creative and emotional outlets.3. Perform at Community Events. As opportunities for performances grew this year following the lifting of many COVID restrictions, Handful Players classes conducted a total of 42 live performance pieces at culminating semester and special holiday community celebrations. 4. Sponsor Cultural Enrichment Activities: Handful Players also inspires and motivates the children by taking them to professional performances throughout the year and exposing them to the richly diverse and vibrant culture of their community that would be inaccessible otherwise. In December, Handful Players students attended Christmas Carol at A.C.T. At the Christmas Carol field trip, the students had a private meet-and-greet with two of the shows leading actors after the performance. Handful Players also arranged for students, family and staff to see the Presidio Theatres entertaining production of Sleeping Beauty and the African American Shakespeare Co.s performance of Cinderella. In each of these productions, there was a Handful Players teaching artist performing in the cast. After these shows, those in the audience had the opportunity to greet the actors and take photos following the shows. 5. Merger with African-American Shakespeare Company (AASC). As of the end of 2023, Handful Players completed its 17th year of operations. On December 29, 2023, Handful Players completed the closing of the merger with AASC. AASC will continue the youth performing arts education programs of Handful Players and all employees will continue as employees of AASC.
