Happy Chocolate Eggs!

And happy Colomba (one of the traditional Easter sweets), happy Pasquetta (the day after Easter, traditionally dedicated to day-trips)... as we say in Italy: "Natale con i tuoi, Pasqua con chi vuoi"... in English more or less goes like that: "Christmas with your family, Easter with whomever you'd like"... so if you'd like to spend some time with KIT, here some suggestions!

Buon Viaggio!

NECTFL
KIT at the Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages

On Saturday April 18th, at 8:45am, Laura, Marta and Natasha (one of KIT's great translators) will introduce to the NECTFL participants the series of programs developed by KIT over the years, and tailored to teach Italian Language and Italian Culture to children, teenagers, and adults.

KIT's team will perform the works of Italian authors in the Double Theater form (in English followed by the original Italian version), will discuss its revolutionary method of teaching Italian through theater to children, will offer a glimpse of the work of and about Toto and will present moments of KIT's funny bilingual shows on Italian culture.

The Conference takes place at the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel on Broadway. For more information, visit NECTFL website.

Wednesday April 22nd
at 6:30pm, Laura Caparrotti presents
Il medico della mutua (1968)
with Alberto Sordi, directed by Luigi Zampa.


The Cine-Club: 79 Years of Italian Film (1930-2009) allows participants to discover cinematic gems and contemplate diverse themes in Italian life. The screenings include discussions on history of film and present-day Italian cinema, the protagonists, and themes that the films explore over time: from love and politics to family and immigration-revealing the Italian way of life for more than half a century.

The series is team-taught by actor, teaching artist, and Italian language instructor Laura Caparrotti (films up until the 80s) and filmmaker and Italian language instructor Riccardo (Riki) Costa (from the 80s till today).

 All films are in Italian and subtitled... in Italian!
Plus, the participants will receive a complementary glass of wine!

Apologies:
We are very sorry that sometime KIT newsletter shows different fonts and formats... the program we use (a very popular one indeed) is very independent and without apparent reasons, it decides not to change font or color or size... and we accept its decision and continue anyway...
