NiTE is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501-(c)(3) corporation providing new actors with theatrical training and high-quality performance opportunities since 1997.  Our board members come from a wide variety of backgrounds including theatre, education, and business.  Sharing a love of theatre, we give ourselves the task of finding shows that feature young performers alongside seasoned actors, lead by experienced production teams.  We strive to create experiences for underserved communities to help provide them with the building blocks for personal development: the thrill of artistic endeavor; the knowledge that without hard work, there is no art; and the sense of team they find in meeting the very difficult challenge of creating a play.  Beyond theatre, we’re buoyed and motivated by study after study demonstrating that students involved in the arts consistently do better academically and average 100 points better on their SAT scores than non-arts students.
