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, Addams Family the Musical, Young@Part. Our goal is to put on a fun, exciting show, that explores various themes of love and family life along with different genres of music through the lens of the not-so-normal members of the Addams Family: Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, and Pugsley.

Our project will provide high quality props, set decor, and costumes.

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