DreamStreet Theatre Company Presents its Annual Winter Production Next Month

Join the Special Needs cast of DreamStreet Theatre Company for their annual Winter Production: Our Town: A Musical Adaptation on Thursday, December 14 and Friday, December 15 at 6:30pm at Roulette Intermedium, 509 Atlantic Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217.

DreamStreet (http://www.dreamstreetnyc.org) is a registered, 501c3 nonprofit organization providing education and inspiration for developmentally disabled individuals with a passion for the performing and creative arts.

Founded in 1998 by Karuna Heisler, a social worker, dancer, and performer, DreamStreet has deep roots in Brooklyn. The company has been rehearsing in donated space at the Berkeley Carroll School in Park Slope for over a decade and now has an office and additional rehearsal space at the Oxford Space in Fort Greene.

Karuna saw that individuals with developmental disabilities have limited access to much-needed services and sought to change that and to bring joy to the lives of special needs adults through theatre. Despite Karuna's untimely passing, her family and a group of passionate professionals continue to support her legacy, and the special needs community, through the DreamStreet Theatre Company.

The theatre company's performances attempt to breakdown stereotypes and illustrate the profound effect art can have on life. Through large-scale theatrical productions, workshops, community outreach performances, and in-home resources, DreamStreet helps those with developmental disabilities to strengthen their interpersonal skills, to build confidence, and to become role models in their communities.
