Support Shine Theatre
Financial support is essential to any arts organization. Help provide opportunities for youth, teens, individuals with special needs, and the greater Valley community to experience the excitement of theatre arts. Donations made to Shine go towards scholarships, licensing fees, sets, props and costumes.
Shine Theatre Company Values
- Honor and encourage one another with words and conduct at all times.
- Create a safe environment for students to explore and create as they take chances to develop and grow in their roles.
- Students are expected to be teachable and to continually strive to work to grow and grow to work.
People were designed to be in community with one another. As our culture becomes more disconnected and hidden behind screens, theatre provides an opportunity for students to form real, in-person friendships and experience community as they explore stories, express emotion, and encourage one another toward a common purpose.
Serve at Shine
Shine Theatre productions build a bridge to our community in amazing ways, and we have lots of opportunities to serve! We're always looking for people to help with costumes, hair and makeup, set-building, video, sound, lighting, concessions, ushering and more. Whatever interest you have, Shine Theatre is a place where you can get involved as we work together to create something special that inspires audiences at Highlands and beyond.
