  Mission and Values

The value of performing arts in education lies in the skills needed for both: listening, communicating, discipline and imagination. The pleasure for the young participants lies in the response from an audience. By providing a strong curriculum, KOS reinforces the value of these skills in young people and strengthens their self-confidence by giving them a moment to shine in their community.

Values

• Welcome kids of all ages and all skill and experience levels
• Encourage the development of imagination and creativity in a non-competitive, constructive environment
• Nurture a love for theater and the performing arts so that students grow up not only to be artists but also lifelong theatergoers and arts patrons
• Introduce students to many aspects of theater production, including stagecraft, playwriting, movement, design, etc.
• Expand students' knowledge of theatrical traditions and stories from cultures around the world
• Reach out to underserved communities through satellite programs at Houston-area schools
• Provide affordable arts education with opportunities for need-based scholarships
• Provide work for teachers who are professional actors, dancers, and educators
