Bring Chaplins to your schoolArt creates better humans
Chaplins is a film and theatre company founded in 2020. This is our education arm, where we've partnered with Better Humans Education and CLARA under our shared belief that art creates better humans. We send working artists into classrooms to teach students how to use their voice, their body, and their imagination, at the age those habits take root deepest.
