Eau Claire Children's Theatre

No one would deny that participation in the arts through theatre allows children the chance to express themselves in an enriching, enjoyable and creative way. However, the ECCT feels children's participation in theatre does much more for children and their mental and physical development. As participants in theatre, children begin to realize a positive self-concept and a new, unique understanding of others. Theatre challenges our children to respond to the world and to look beyond themselves to see the connectedness of human society, fostering a greater understanding of other cultures, their histories, symbols, values and beliefs
