“My dad and my mom wanted us to go to 52nd Street Project because they wanted us to get entertained and they wanted us to have fun, instead being home.” Frankie, age 11
A couple of our newest Playmakers, twins Laila & Frankie, share what their plays are about and what they see for themselves in the future at The 52nd Street Project. Drawn from our Behind the Pencil interviews, these two playwrights are having their NYC debut in HEAD IN THE CLOUDS, Nov. 30 - Dec. 2 at The Project’s Five Angels Theater

A production of The 52nd Street Project, a non-profit arts education organization working with the children (ages 9 - 18) in Hell’s Kitchen in Manhattan. The Project brings kids together with adult artists to create original work for the theater. The PROJcast offers a behind-the-scenes view of the work of the Project as the kids create and explore theater as well as other art forms, such as song, dance, poetry, film and more. Long term-mentoring relationships form the basis of much of the Project’s work, and these episodes will feature reporting, stories, performances and interviews with kids and adults.
The 52nd Street Project is supported by The Altman Foundation, & The Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation.
