And Lisa. Teaching Artists. Mr should be a character! Mae should be a character. Donnell should be a character, Brittany, as a former staff member. Jasmin as a former staff member. Sarah should be in it! Cecelia should be in it. Some of our youngest playwrights should be in it. (They should be also be writing it) At least one school. A Philly school. CAPA - they are a school that loves us but doesn't have funding but should have a program! Play about putting on a play about PYP. And everyone is auditioning, and everyone is fighting over the role of Adele - Donnell really wants to be Adele, but so does Mr. Adele was an amazing catalyst, and visionary, and the reason for all past present and future impact which is why everyone wants that role to celebrate that. It's a play that's trying to convince someone why this program is so important, why everyone who is playing the roles and delivering the lines is so passionate about everything they say, why this program is the catalyst for all of that - because the message is that every school and student who WANTS to access PYP should be able to, no matter what, and there shouldn't be any barriers in their way. The climax is that Donnell gets the role of Adele, and Mr doesn't, and Mr is about to quit - but the community rallies and the message spreads to the vital role that Mr plays, the role that everyone plays, that is part of this program that can't be replicated or replaced. PYP is a catalyst for teaching everyone that they are each vital!!!]]> 2021-09-25 15:43:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ellengreenberg888/n88auzljavyr6bbt/wish/1767491559 https://padlet.com/ellengreenberg888/n88auzljavyr6bbt/wish/1767491757 A student feels alone, afraid and that no one is listening to them.

Documentary - Follow the stories of alum and create climaxes... what skills they took and how they continue to use those skills ...could be unrelated to the art

PYP staff reality show...  Follow Glynnis who just started and is getting acclimated in the organization.... Philadelphia is a character.... She's just is back and her adventures in connecting to external community .. Hardworking staff what resources are needed... How much they contribute...  

Show about each student ... Following their journeys.. one is wanting to be in the arts as a career... and those who were made to participate.. Or can follow a festival
