Welcome to

Theatre of Will 

We are a nonprofit, interactive arts education company based in California. Our engaging presentations utilize S.T.E.A.M. concepts that motivate students to participate with our live Teaching Artists in a call to action to conserve our precious natural resources.

For over 20 years, our continued innovation has kept us on the forefront of immersive hands-on eduction. With overwhelmingly positive feedback from students and teachers alike, Theatre of Will continues to help foster a new generation of conservation-minded youth.

Our assemblies encourage students to think "outside the box" and participate in demonstrations that show various ways to save water & money in their homes. These animated musical presentations are designed to take place in school auditoriums, but can also be conducted in classroom settings if necessary.


THE 45-MINUTE PRESENTATIONS ARE SPONSORED BY THE LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER
