The Other Side Intercultural Theater

Working with talented teaching artists, our Staten Island girls will be guided through a series of 5 Thursday evening workshops to create skits, dance, poetry and music that reflect their lives. A final performance and video, which will be later shown to the girls participating in India and Chile, will celebrate the completion of our workshop series.
