Join Us for World Theater Day


Celebrate theater every day, but especially on March 27th, World Theater Day. This year YPT held the festivities at the Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture. Jon Samson of CoCreative Music led a sing-along with songs from his newly released CD. Jeri of CoCreative Faces painted lots of beautiful faces and transformed children into lions, butterflies, and superheroes (just to name a few). Scott Davis and Stephanie Wells, YPT teaching artists led family sing-alongs that got the entire crowd singing and dancing. Children and grown-ups played theater games and acted out their favorite stories. The day came to a festive close with Simba telling an African folk tale and dancing with live drumming.
