Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help us create an amazing musical theatre production experience for our students by providing high quality materials for our show: Shrek the Musical Jr. Our goal is to put on a fun, exciting show, that explores various themes of acceptance along with different genres of music through the lens of the hilarious Shrek, lovable Donkey, and brave Princess Fiona.

Our project would provide beautiful backdrops to fully immerse our actors and audience into the magical story.

We want to not only transform our actors, but help our audience feel part of the story.
