As part of the Roundabout Children’s Theatre tour, the Department of Theatre & Dance produced the musical Nate the Great during the fall 2023 semester, reaching 3,655 children over fourteen performances. This K-5 regional outreach project, directed by Nicole Mattis (Professor of Theatre), included collaborations with FSU’s Cultural Events Series, the Children’s Adaptive Sports League, and ten K-5 tour performances in the Allegany County Public Schools. The Department of Theatre and Dance also hosted the 5^th annual Mountain Maryland Theatre Festival, providing valuable development and networking opportunities for young artists and their teachers.
