🎭 Mindful Drama Program at Maysles Documentary Center

This summer, we’re excited to take our Mindful Drama Program to the next level with performances at the Maysles Documentary Center, a professional theater space right here in the neighborhood!

Our Mindful Drama Program blends mindfulness practices with creative storytelling to help campers build confidence, express themselves, and connect with others. Through guided reflection and imaginative play, campers will write and perform their own original skits, exploring themes of empathy, self-awareness, and community.

Whether your child loves being in the spotlight or prefers working behind the scenes, Mindful Drama offers a role for everyone. From acting and scriptwriting to set design and stage management, campers will experience theater as a tool for self-expression and personal growth.

✨ What to Expect:

✔ Original skits written by the campers, inspired by mindfulness exercises and reflections.

✔ A focus on collaboration, creativity, and emotional growth.

✔ Opportunities for on-stage performances and behind-the-scenes roles like set design, direction, and production.

✔ Performances at Maysles Documentary Center for family and friends to celebrate the kids’ creativity.

✔ Mindful movement and reflection exercises to support emotional awareness and confidence.

🎭 Plus! We’re expanding our partnership with The New Victory Theater. Along with attending their world-class performances, New Victory teaching artists will now come to work directly with our campers in our theater space, providing professional-level theater training that complements our Mindful Drama approach.

🌟 Junior Mentor Program (For 11-13 Year Olds!)
