Special Needs - Special Gifts Theatre

This wonderful tip I received from the co-owner of Growth Spurts. What a great concept for special needs children...music, theater and FUN all in Northbrook.

Mission Statement - To provide children and teens with special needs, a unique, creative drama experience enabling personal growth while breaking down stereotypes related to disabilities within the community at large

Ultimate Goal - Our ultimate goal is to create specific opportunities for children and teens, with and without special needs, to work together. Mainstreaming is encouraged whenever students i have developed the appropriate social and artistic skills necessary to succeed. Based on this premise, SGT’s goals include developing creative abilities, building friendships and providing disability awareness by breaking down stereotypes about disabilities.

Children between the ages of three to 21 years old may participate in one of our programs. The enrollment process commences late Spring to begin evaluating children for our programs. We do have a waiting list for our programs, so we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible so we can put you on that list. The cost for participation varies depending on the program. If you would like to participate or obtain more information, contact us and we will respond to you promptly. You may also call the theatre at 847.564.7704. Participation in the program is based on a first come, first served basis. Theatre resources determine maximum student enrollment. If there is not availability in the program, we will gladly add your name to our mailing list and will contact you next season.
