Kids Are Dramatic is an entrepreneurial venture that seeks to stake an intervention in the educational system in the Colorado Springs community. Through the use of theatre arts, we create a medium for elementary and middle school students to express themselves, developing a pathway to emotional cognition. We believe that emotional cognition, the idea of mounting one’s critical consciousness to better understand one’s behavior, is indispensable when looking to improve academic achievement, resolve disciplinary problems, and empower our youth to take ownership in their futures. Theatre is more than simply “playing pretend” and we encourage the juxtaposition of playing reality.
