2019-2020 Teen Ambassadors Generate Buzz for the Broward Center  Image

When attending a show at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, you may notice some high school students in the theater recording their experiences. They are among the 26 high school students representing 21 public, private or home schools in Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties as Broward Center Teen Ambassadors during the 2019-2020 season.

Now in its 10th year, the Teen Ambassadors program is fostering the next generation of performing arts fans. Teen Ambassadors bring a unique perspective to what they cover at the Broward Center, as they detail, through written and video reviews, their behind-the-scenes experiences and exclusive educational opportunities, including introductions to performances in every artistic discipline. Acting as in-house theater critics, they must demonstrate a dedication to both the performing arts and writing in order to become a Teen Ambassador. The students also earn community service hours through this innovative program that ensures a fresh perspective on traditional and contemporary arts.

The Teen Ambassador share their review on their social media channels and populate a unique website with their original content. See their reviews online at browardcenterteenambassadors.com/
