Mrs. Martino from East Elmhurst NY is requesting a class trip through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Students see PUFFS the Play!

My students need to go see the Off-Broadway Play, PUFFS, which is a comedy based on the favorite series Harry Potter. They would love this! Please give them this opportunity!

My Students

Our theatre students are so unique and special this year. They care so much for the arts and truly have a passion for either singing, dancing, acting, artwork and sound/lighting design. They are truly gifted and are very focused at rehearsals. We have reached the point in rehearsals where we want to give them even more so that is why we are reaching out! We think it would be so fabulous for them to see the off-Broadway production of "Puffs" as well as have a meet and greet with the cast to further their cultural experience.

My Project

This experience will truly enrich my student's lives because they will be able to witness professional acting and a real production of an off-Broadway play. The trip will be a month before their performance which will really encourage their own performance and passion! They will also be able to have a meet and greet with the cast!

My students come from all different walks of life and many are financially strapped.

This experience would mean the world to them and also be so relevant and helpful to their own acting experience! Please help fulfill our dream for our students and further their acting /theatre experiences.
