This year classes are focused in Stories from the World. Children will work on different stories coming from different countries in the World. Consequently, few stories will be chosen to build the final-of-the-year show. Different media will be use to make the stories, from drawings to puppets and more.  Overviews of the countries visited with the stories are included.

roll before September 30!

Thirty classes to play with your children' stories and transform them into cute, nice, funny plays performed entirely in Italian for a real audience, in a real theater.

Laura (Theater and Italian), Lucretia (Set), and other special guest teachers, will guide the students in creating entirely their own show. The play may include songs and dances, all created from students' ideas. They will learn or improve Italian too: each class will be thought in Italian and will include some writing and a lot of talking (and explaining!).
  PLUS every month there will be one class fully devoted to Italian grammar and use of language.
 

At the end,
the students will perform the play THEY have created IN ITALIAN!

KIT NEW WEBSITE Updates!
Some Under Construction... some almost running...


Nuovo sito KIT
While our very patient web designer Sal Fabbella is working on KIT'S NEW WEBSITE, you'll find the detailed information about our upcoming events and classes already on the website. 

Just give us few days, and everything will be there... then, for the full working website... need some more time...


In the meantime, please contact us at info@kitheater.com for questions, information and inquires you may have.




Sincere, so very sincere Apologies: OH YES! 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...what else is there to do?
