“New Paradigm Theatre [NPT] recently received a $20,000 grant from Fairfield County’s Community Foundation to support its summer educational and production programming ….

Grants such as this, as well as individual donations received at NPT’s recent Gala, which honored Carole Demas (original Broadway “Sandy” in Grease, and Carole in “The Magic Garden”), are essential to NPT’s efforts to provide outstanding experiences to youth and adults in our community.

“This grant will help us provide salaries for professional directors, designers, teachers and actors, all of whom work diligently with our youth. In addition to this grant, all of the donors who came to our Gala on May 13th have added to our ability to accomplish our unique mission. While we love putting on a great show, we really love teaching young people how to use what they learn through the arts to become outstanding leaders,” says Kristin Huffman, NPT’s Artistic Director.”
