About A Fighting Chance

A Fighting Chance is a professional stage presentation first performed before America's public schools in 1989. The first show of its kind invited into the public school arena when Joe Manno was asked to help kick off the nationwide "Red Ribbon Campaign" in Southern California. This production has since been touted throughout the U.S. for it's ability to draw children of all ages into the heart of the message. Through comedy and the impact of captivating dramatic skits, AFC effectively teaches children to choose the right roads, stay away from drugs, gangs and violence by following their dreams, believing in themselves and never giving up. We strongly emphasize literacy and motivation to stay in school, respect their parents, teachers and become leaders. Every child is left with a message of hope, encouragement, self-esteem and a feeling of being special.
