Early Access to the Performing Arts

Getting children into the world of the performing arts, and getting the arts into the world of children - it’s a challenge that our guest on today’s show has taken on. For the most part, outside of certain better endowed schools, little is done in our public sector-schools and community centres to expose school-age children to live performances, and for them to explore the creative arts. Chris Ng, who is trained in children’s theatre, elaborated on why it is important, and how to extend this reach beyond the privileged upper middle-class.
