Anchorless Productions
Our students will never be held down. They are Anchorless.
Our Mission
We are a non-profit theatre company that aims to show young adults and children with developmental disabilities that they will never be held down. Our goal is to provide an opportunity to young adults with developmental disabilities to express themselves and grow through theatre. The foundation of our company stems deeper than just a production; we strive to develop self-confidence, expression, and essential life skills in each of our students. We care about our students and unite them with typically developing peers to create a safe learning environment. Our focus is on creating progress, growth, and friendships.
December Student Spotlight
Madysen Fleck
Madysen is 17 years old and sings in choir outside of Anchorless. She also spends her time playing baseball, football, basketball, and participating in the Special Olympics.
Madysen has performed in leading roles in Anchorless’s High School Musical 2, Shrek, Newsies, Peter Pan, and will be playing Pearl in next month’s The SpongeBob Musical. She always does her part in our performances, ensuring she has her lines memorized and arrives on time to rehearsals. She is a source of inspiration and positivity for her peers, as she always encourages students and volunteers to think optimistically. Madysen is thankful for Anchorless for giving her the chance to step out of her comfort zone on stage and providing her with lasting friendships.
