WE ARE PROUD TO SHARE OUR TWO PROGRAMS FOR YOUR SCHOOLS! 

​

(1) "Disability is O.K.!" (Openness and Kindness) is a disability awareness presentation with interactive theatre that can be modified for different age groups. Using books and resources as a launching point, sharing our story, showing our mobility devices and real life examples, we will create a safe space to ask questions, be curious and learn about difference. Students and facilitators will create good/bad scenarios about life where we learn what really matters... being OPEN and KIND.  Both Sofiya Cheyenne and her friends have dwarfism and they have been sharing their story to teach the youth all over New York! We bring an incredible amount of personal knowledge since each of our experiences are so unique and connected.

​

(2) "And SEEN" is a student centered theatre class that will teach disability culture and access, empathy, leadership and other important life skills.. Through theatrical expression we have created a hands-on approach to learning about the self and our impact in the world. Using exercises such improv, meaningful play, creative writing, and storytelling, we build self-esteem and confidence in our students so they can tackle the world like the incredible leaders they are! With empathy and empowerment at the center of this workshop the students will be SEEN in their craft, in their peers, and in themselves.
