Spotlight' History

Spotlight se fundó en 2019 y tiene su sede en Lima, Perú. Proporciona a los jóvenes a partir de 14 años las herramientas necesarias para el aprendizaje del idioma inglés y el desarrollo de habilidades blandas a través de las artes escénicas para acceder a oportunidades académicas en Perú o en el extranjero. Los talleres de Spotlight se desarrollan y repiten sobre la base de un amplio compromiso con las familias y los estudiantes.

Modelo de funcionamiento de Spotlight

At its core, performing arts is the mechanism through which Spotlight delivers all programs. Specifically, students engage in a range of experiences and activities for 10-12 hours per week for 16 weeks. Students' experiences include working collaboratively with teachers to adapt, co-direct, and perform a full-length musical show. Students learn from a group of local and international artist instructors. Students have the opportunity to learn from professional artists from Broadway, film, and theater around the world. Additionally, students who are interested in pursuing careers in the arts may also choose to participate in an in-house internship or teacher training program. Ideally students complete 3-4 lifecycles of the program to see the most impact in skills growth over time.

Un espacio seguro donde tod@s son artistas

We create an equitable and supportive space for students to acquire language in a multicultural environment. We provide a space for students to be their most authentic selves and minimize power structures by taking advantage of the fictional space of theater and theater practices.
