    The Carriage House

    In 1990, Everett Dance incorporated and founded their Stage and School. The company transformed an old carriage house, located in the heart of an ethnically diverse neighborhood of Providence, Rhode Island, into a studio/theater space.? The School offers ongoing classes in the performing arts to inner-city youth. These classes are taught by company members and other professional artists and include: ballet, breakdancing, creative movement, improvisational theater, choreography, hip-hop, filmmaking and Polynesian dance. Everett builds long-term, strong relationships with youth through professional mentorship, which includes the opportunity to create and perform original work and assistant teaching positions.

    The Stage provides an intimate setting for the presentation of local, national, and developing artists. The Stage supports two main programs, Friday Night Live, a weekly comedy improv series, and Open Stage, a monthly forum for a broad variety of local performing artists.

    The Stage and School programs have been supported by Americorps*VISTA, Amica, Ford Foundation, June Rockwell Levy Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, Rhode Island Foundation, Rhode Island State Council on the Arts, and Textron.
