SPONSOR A CHILD
DreamBox Theatre provides children's programming to hundreds of elementary age students annually. Last summer was our first summer camp program in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. We had 40 students enrolled in the bilingual musical theatre program and 75% of them were sponsored by people like YOU. The program was a success because of your support. We partnered with Casa Hogar (the girls orphanage in San Miguel) and also a literacy program at the Biblioteca to find Mexican children and families who could benefit from the scholarship program. We provide a 5 day arts experience in visual arts, acting, singing, and dancing for children who would not have the financial means to do this otherwise. The camp included children speaking Spanish as their native language and some children speaking English as their native language. Our goal was to also use the theatre arts to build bridges in the San Miguel youth community. On the final day we have a culminating musical theatre performance that is open for the community to come see! There also is time in the schedule for creating costumes, props, scenery, and playing theatre games. A DreamBox musical includes activities that enrich the stories performed, stretch the students’ imaginations and promote creative problem- solving. The final performance will be at the San Miguel Playhouse on July 19th.
