Using Our Voices to Share Our Stories
Students will collaborate with the Houses on the Moon team to devise a piece of theater in groups based on a topic they are passionate about. We’ll start with group brainstorming through theater games, then move into the development process. Students will be on their feet, using their bodies, voices, and original text to tell stories that are authentic to each participant.

IG: @angelikamenendez | angelikamenendez.com Houses on the Moon is a home for unheard stories. Our projects begin with relationship building, collaboration, and partnership with grassroots community organizations to identify an urgent social need; a vital untold story that must be heard. Our creation process includes extensive research, first-person storytelling workshops, and interviews, and our work is presented Off Broadway as well as in non-traditional spaces throughout New York City, the US, and internationally.
