June-July 2011:

We are starting during the summer a theatre camp.

On one morning a week, we will go to the nearby park, sit down by the trees and tell one story of the adventures of Don Quijote and Sancho Panza; after that we will have a small snack, free play, and then we will get to the open area to rehearse the musical Don Quijote de la Mancha. By the time we finish we will stay for a picnic or go home for the meal in case of bad weather. Let us know if you would like to participate in this weekly activity. 608 637 8446.



February-May 2011: 

The play The Fiddler on the Roof: we will have it as a musical, performing four of the famous songs  from the movie itself, and making the script straight from the book. The adaptation as always will be suited to the group of children we have, and the faith we live. It will end with  a violin performance of the song: If I were a rich man.
