Mission: Hits theatre has two major goals for children in the arts: education and performance. The program helps transform students into disciplined team players, creative thinkers, confident speakers and, perhaps most importantly, empathetic individuals. While many of our alumni have gone on to careers in the performing arts, many more have used the life skills and confidence they developed at hits to become successful in a variety of professional endeavors in the community.
Programs: In the year ended 09/30/17, hits enrolled almost 1900 students in its classes and workshops, with classes at 95%+ capacity. A portion of students receive needs-based full or partial tuition scholarships. Hits serves the entire houston metropolitan region with registered students from 60 zip codes and from as far away as montgomery, pearland, baytown, league city, missouri city, cypress, spring, stafford, friendswood and katy. Since its inception, approximately 514,000 children and adults have been educated and entertained through hits theatre classes and free community performances.
