PARANGELLO PLAYERS 91-1469515 | Government Grant Application

PARANGELLO PLAYERS | Application Preview

 

PARANGELLO PLAYERS is seeking government grants to support arts education for students in the Cornville and Tri-Valley areas. The funding will help finance various classes, including Acting, Make Up, Vocals, Dance, Stagecraft, and more, all taught by IVP-certified instructors.

The business plans to host an annual theater production for the community and plans to conduct ongoing six-week classes at reduced rates. Additionally, they intend to run a 'We've Got Talent' competition, allowing schools to showcase their students' talents and culminate in a grand finale.

PARANGELLO PLAYERS has been successfully operating in Sedona since 2017 and aims to expand their youth programming in Cornville. With a 35-year history of working with schools and youth theater in multiple states, their track record demonstrates their ability to offer meaningful experiences.

The organization faces little competition, as they provide group classes at prices significantly lower than individual studios. Their unique edge lies in targeted after-school programming, affordable theater production participation, and a free talent competition that fosters community engagement.

  • Business Plan

    By hosting 1 theater production per year open to the community, we will grow our Cornville and Tri-Valley Area classes so that our youth are given lots of opportunities to learn performing arts. The community will benefit by seeing their students perform. We will host ongoing 6 week classes at reduced rates from normal studios. We will also host an annual "We've Got Talent" Competition (Similar to America's Got Talent) between our schools. Each school participating hosts their own show and all winners compete in the Grand Finale Competition between schools. We have been working off grants in Sedona from the City of Sedona since 2017 successfully offering our students a wide array of programming. We are now based in Cornville and wish to expand our offerings in this region as well. We have a 35yr history in schools and working in theater with youth in 3 states. Our track record speaks for itself.

  • Self Identified Competition

    We don't really have competitors. There are individual dance studios and private vocal instructors, but none that offer group classes at half the price of normal classes (we typically charge $12.50 per hour per student for our classes). We offer targeted after school programming for youth. Our theater productions are only a $100 registration fee for a 4 month experience. All students may audition and participate in the production in some facet. Our Talent Competition is free for all who enter and offers community-wide engagement through performances.
