We wrapped up our second-ever School Squad Tour with Dragons Love Tacos at the end of March. We’re thrilled to share the numbers highlighting our impact across the Upstate!
17 schools across three counties received a Dragons Love Tacos performance this year, with a total of 18 shows!
14 schools received a reduced rate or FREE performance.
The School Squad drove over 430 miles to and from performances.
They rehearsed for 40 hours!
13 team members collaborated for the tour, including actors, the director, crew, designers, admins, and producers.
ZERO bowls of spicy salsa were eaten. #nospicysalsa
Beyond the numbers, the most rewarding aspect has been the opportunity to continue sharing the magic of theatre with students. The joy, inspiration, and creativity sparked in their hearts and minds are genuinely invaluable.
As we look back on the tour, we’re grateful for everyone who supported us – from our sponsors to the schools who welcomed us with open arms. We look forward to next year’s tour and another season of spreading the transformative power of theatre to even more students!
