Theatre in Our Schools Advocacy Day
March 6, 2025- Kansas Capital

In the room where it happens...
​

Advocacy is defined as any action that speaks in favor of, recommends, argues for a cause, supports or defends, or pleads on behalf of others.


"From the local to the federal level, Theatre Advocacy seeks to educate others about the value of an arts education. We show up on behalf of students and our programs from the local to the national level in national arts education groups, legislative offices, policy events, advocacy campaigns, and more."

In 2018, Kansas Thespians held the first Advocacy Day at the state capital with 12 schools participating and 120 students. 

In 2024, there were 24 participating schools with 233 students.
