Why do you perform? To give back to the community. I was one of 13 teen actors from Denver who put on a production of Jason Robert Brown’s 13 The Musical where all of the proceeds from the show went directly to The Denver Actors Fund. In just one day, we raised $13,000 for them. Performances provide so much more than entertainment. They have the potential to make a difference in someone’s life. I have seen the impact that The Denver Actors Fund has made in the lives of those in my theatre community, and I look forward to seeing how I can get involved with something similar when I go away to college.
