Of all that Dayton has to offer, the Liberty Theater is arguably the most valuable place, for it has created the most-awe inspiring community; one that I’ve been a part of since I was 9 years old. I’ve grown up surrounded by so many incredibly passionate and supportive people, all of whom consider ourselves to be a “theater family.” In Dayton, productions put on by the TVAC team are about so much more than simply acting; they strengthen bonds between all kinds of people in the area, and provide an encouraging environment in which to give back to the community. With so many individuals to look up to, and so much radiating positivity, the theater community in Dayton gives the audience, as well as the cast and crew, a sense of belonging unmatched by any other. It is my hope that more of the youth from our school get to take part in the Dayton Liberty Theater productions!
