MamaDrama News: A Special MLK Performance and Talkback

freckleface strawberryI’ve talked several times in the last two years about a wonderful show called Freckleface Strawberry, the hit off-Broadway family musical based on the popular children’s book by actress, Julianne Moore.  In my review last year, I talked about the important messages that this play has to offer:  ”The story has a great lesson to teach, and the music and dancing really help to bring the message home.  It’s truly the story of Strawberry’s journey to self-discovery.”    Now I’m lucky to be helping to support and promote the show via my new company, MamaDrama.

LOVE THE SKIN YOU’RE IN is Freckleface’s new motto.  Now called “Freckleface the Musical”, the new production is taking place at Manhattan Movement and Arts Center, a new facility that functions as a theatre, rehearsal studio center and dance school. The new show is better than ever, and best of all, its producers want this show to be a catalyst for change, to help teach some valuable lessons to kids about tolerance and self acceptance.  Producer and co-writer of the musical Rose Caiola, a staunch supporter of children and the arts, is a huge advocate of getting the message out that bullying is wrong to kids of all ages.

On Monday, January 16th at 1pm, which happens to be Martin Luther King, they are offering a special performance and talk back.  The discussion will be about bullying and in the audience will be school groups who are there to enjoy the theatre and take home an important message.
