Purpose

Winter PlayshopACT NOW! Inc. is dedicated to building character and confidence in youth, particularly girls, through improvisation and moviemaking. In our core program, we help players create their very own improvised movie in the course of a day. They select a site, invent a story, create characters, improvise each scene on camera and screen the results within 24 hours. The experience leaves participants inspired to play the lead in their own lives.

Our mission is to help people, especially young girls, change their experience of themselves, so that they feel connected to their authentic power to create, see options, make healthy choices and star in their own lives.
