Inspired by the Penguin Project, Northern Starz is proud to announce the first-ever Penguin Pals Program.  This unique opportunity allows elementary-aged students with special needs to discover the impact theater has on their self-confidence and sense of belonging. Participants can expect to learn a modified show while building their communication skills, social skills, and self-confidence. The lessons will revolve around theater skills as well as social-emotional learning. Students will be supported by multiple staff members, parents, as well as dedicated peer mentors. There will be a performance for families on the last day of class.​

There will be a mandatory individualized meet and greet and tour with parents and students on Saturday, June 14th. After registering, you will receive an email to sign up for a timeslot.
