The American Alliance for Theatre & Education (AATE) and the Educational Theatre Association (EdTA), has declared March as Theatre in Our Schools (TIOS) Month. One of the goals of the TIOS initiative is to raise public awareness of the impact of theatre education and draw attention to the need for more access to quality programs in and out of school for all students. Hear what Koko Thornton, the Arts Department Chair at Enloe Magnet High School in Raleigh, Chloe Calhoun, a senior in the high school theater program at Enloe, and Lauren Kennedy Brady, the Producing Artistic Director at Theatre Raleigh have to say about the importance of arts education and the process of bringing the Jack Murphy and Frank Wildhorn's musical 'Wonderland' home.
