| Description Program Service Accom | Statement of Program Service AccomplishmentsPROGRAM SERVICE: Musical Theater ProgramHandful Players received $ 50,300 of donated professional services and $18,818of use of facilities to conduct its program in addition to the cash contributions and donated goods.1. Conduct Student Workshops. Handful Players conducted a total of 277 hours of free musical theater workshops providing inner city youth 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 improvisation, acting, public speaking, singing, dance movement and puppetry. The children actively participated hands-on in the theater process, collaborating with the playwrights to craft the plays, making choices about the movement and expression of their characters in the plays, and designing costumes and sets. They also had the opportunity to interact collaboratively with parents and adult volunteers on varied activities involved in the theater production. Handful Players provided the musical theater program in a residency at one San Francisco public schools for three 2nd grade and two 4th grade classes and in After-School and Summer Programs for nine San Francisco Western Addition Youth Organizations with children from over 20 public and charter schools in San Francisco. 2. Reach Out to Underserved Youth: Handful Players worked with a total of 400 children ages 7 -17; most are underserved children in San Francisco's Western Addition who are African-American or Latino, living in public housing, and have only one parent living at home with no more than a high school-level education. They live in a distressed community still riddled by gangs and violence. The youth therefore lack traditional mentorship and have little exposure to cultural events and theater. 3. Commission Original Plays. Handful Players commissions original plays by talented playwrights so that children can be involved in the creation of a play inspired by their community's cultural heritage. During January 2011-May 2011, Handful Players commissioned the acclaimed performing artist, Jeff Raz, to write a play with jazz music about Marcus Books, celebrating its 50th anniversary as the oldest African American bookstore in the country. The play underscores the focus on literacy by the new principal at John Muir Elementary School (where the children from the Western Addition Beacon Center attend). During June, 2011 - August, 2011, Handful Players commissioned Andrew Saito to write six short plays based on the summer reading list of the MoMagic Collaborative of Western Addition Youth Programs.4. Perform at Community Events. The workshops culminated in community performances by the students accompanied by professional jazz musicians. Each performance brings together a diverse San Francisco audience numbering from 75 to 250. Following our final performance at Yoshi's, we hosted a free reception to help strengthen community bonds.Handful Players performed at these Western Addition community events:-Black History Celebration, Western Addition Beacon Center/John Muir School February 2011-Spring Performance at Spring Valley Science School, May 2011-Spring Performance at Margaret Hayward Rec-Connect, May 2011-Season Finale at San Francisco Boys and Girls Club May 2011-Season Finale Full Performance at Yoshi's San Francisco, May 2011-San Francisco Summer Youth Showcase (Performances by 6 Youth Organizations working with Handful Players) at Ella Hill Hutch Community Center, July 2011-Summer Youth Performances, African American Art and Culture Complex, August 2011-Thanksgiving Celebration, Western Addition Beacon Center, November 2011-Holiday Youth Show, Western Addition Beacon Center, December 20115.
