It's been an absolute joy collaborating with Pittsburgh Public Theater on their summer theater camps, developing improv-centric sessions for grades 3-6 and grades 7-12. Arts education can be the introduction to a successful career, a lifelong enriching hobby, or skills that serve in any walk of life. So grateful to Duolingo for their support - a company that understands how important it is to make learning fun!

🎭 "OUTSTANDING... a wonderful play with the right balance of pathos and comic relief... Kudos to Pittsburgher and playwright Mark Clayton Southers for writing such an insightful play.
