Storytelling in Newark, NJ
Just because our tours are on hiatus for the summer doesn't mean we get a vacation! Even when school is out, we are constantly trying to find ways to bring the unique experience of theatre to as many kids as we can. This summer, we've teamed up with The Prudential Foundation to bring two outstanding artists-in-residence to three different camps in Newark, New Jersey. Queen Nur, an African-American storyteller, and Felix Pitre, a Latin American storyteller, musician, and author, are working with over 130 kids ranging from 4 to 13 years old in a series of workshops that encourage the exploration of storytelling, singing, music, dance, language, and culture. We were excited to see all of the kids jump right in from Day 1 and can't wait to see how far they will have come by the end!
Check out some pictures from the very first workshop with Felix Pitre at La Casa De Don Pedro! And to see more pictures, you can view the entire album on Facebook.

The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe cast takes on the Grand Canyon!
So, after last week's craziness, I will only send good news and fun from this week. We had lots of good shows, and took ourselves on a ride up to the Grand Canyon.
We spent the night in Flagstaff and bought groceries for a cook-out at the Canyon... much to our chagrin, there are NOT any grills at the Grand Canyon...
so we bought Hamburgers and Hot Dogs just before low blood sugar gave rise to mutiny. Here are pics from the day. :-)
