There is no greater photo that honors International Day of Happiness AND World Day of Theater for Children and Young People falling on the same day. This past summer, these inspiring young kiddos jumped into opportunities to share their stories, learn new things, and grow outside their comfort zones both on stage and off. Little did we both know, they allowed us to do the exact same. Missing these beautiful faces every day!

#fbf Shout out to our students on Isla Floreana in The Galápagos Islands! Our residency this January was a huge success due to your eagerness to learn and create meaningful theatre. Congratulations to our Residency Team – especially @christenita for her guidance, @cronktastic for taking the lead, and @chuksui for nurturing such a strong partnership in this community!

After traveling from the Amazon, we worked our way across the Andes and up the coast to Esmeraldas – the heart of Afro-Ecuadorian culture! We have been working in the city of Esmeraldas for years, but with this trip we met with new partners in a small, charming village accurately named “Pueblito.” It was a fantastic meeting and we are thrilled to be expanding our efforts into this rural community. And as you can see from this mural, although there is no ongoing arts education being offered at this school – there is definitely a desire to learn!

We decided to hike in for our meeting with the leadership of this Shuar community in the Amazon. Although things began cautiously, we all left the meeting feeling like this was the beginning of an important relationship. We look forward to working hand in hand with our new friends to strengthen public speaking/storytelling skills – needed now more than ever as their voices desperately needs to be heard.

On our way to another community meeting, we were shown nearby and newly discovered ancient petroglyphs. Amazing. Love this one!

Galapa… GONE.
We set up our resident teaching artists on the island of Floreana and now it’s time for us to go. Sad to leave!

Heading to meet with community leaders in the valley, but first we had to pull over and take in the view.

Our beloved ‘Pichi’ took us on a full loop of Ecuador as we met with community partners on each corner of the country!

#Repost @journeymanbaxter ・・・ Today is the last day of #auditions for #ACTionheartofeurope (heading to #Czech and #Slovakia this summer!). Since we had Skype auditions scheduled back to back all day, I felt it would be fitting (and fun and delicious) to hold these final auditions at the @bohemianhallbeergarden in #Astoria.
