ART MATTERS PROGRAMME

The Art Matters Programme

CHILDREN FROM UNDERPRIVILEGED BACKGROUNDS, who would not normally have the opportunity to go to the theatre, will be invited to attend a Sitara performance.  Their magical day out will include transport, a free Sitara souvenir, photos and refreshments.

We are delighted to announce that we launched our Art Matters Programme on 20th May 2010 with two free shows for some Sudanese refugees.

Thanks to the generous support from New Cairo British International School who are providing transport and refreshments, over 100 children aged from 3-11 came to Sitara to enjoy Jack and the Beanstalk.

 A big thank you to other generous Sitara donors, whose donations will enable our guests to to receive a free magic stick

 If anyone knows of any other underprivileged children with enough English to enjoy the Sitara experience please let us know.  We welcome all donations for this programme.

We were very sad to say goodbye to our good friend and colleague, Reem, who worked with us for over a year. Thank you for all your hard work, Reem. We’ll miss you.

Welcome to Dahlia Abou-Azama our new performer / puppeteer.  Dahlia is graduating from AUC this year and is passionate about theatre.  Watch out for her excellent performances in both Jack and the Beanstalk and Cinderella in Marina.
