PUSH Physical Theater Residency
PUSH Physical Theater visits Villa of Hope School on Friday, January 24, 2020.
PUSH performed for the students this morning, an amazing demonstration of creativity and physical stamina. The PUSH performers then engaged our students in an introductory workshop. Both our students and staff participated in movement that provided performances mimicking dance and artistic creativity.
Students will volunteer to join the residency during the month of February. PUSH performers will inspire and motivate our students to create their own movement for a culminating performance for the whole school in March.
We are thrilled to be part of this grant funded program, designed just for Villa of Hope School. Thank you to Darren and Heather and the other performers, you have impacted our school, and we look forward to spending more time together.
