Joy Hammond Wright

Joy Hammond Wright developed her passion for theatre as an adult and has since been sharing her love of theatre arts with the students she encounters.  She enjoys working with children in a creative space and believes in bringing industry professionals to share their crafts with learners.  Joy supports the pursuit of artistic careers and works to bridge the gap with parents who have concerns about “non-traditional career paths” or jobs that may not have the “stability” of a W-2.  Joy believes that theatre arts education is critical to individual self-development, and collectively, theatre helps society to reflectively evolve and grow.
