See A.R. Garcia in Foster Care Unplugged, The Stage Play 3: Together Apart this April 2023. In his latest play, Garcia advocates healing in youth foster care. Foster Care Unplugged, The Stage Play 3: Together Apart, will run for three shows at the Mark O’Donnell Theater at The Actors Fund Arts Center in Brooklyn, NY, from April 6th, 8th, and 9th, 2023!
In the care of The Schermerhorn, the Mark O’Donnell Theater is an excellent spot for all kinds of artists to showcase their work and let their creativity shine. It’s also a place for artists in Brooklyn to develop and share their talents while bringing together people from different communities.
Foster Care Unplugged, The Stage Play 3: Together Apart is a new play that sheds light on what being in foster care is like. Most of the actors in the play were foster kids at some point in their lives, so they know all too well the struggles these kids go through. But here’s the cool part – the actors are healing themselves while performing! That’s right; they’re taking care of their emotional health and well-being just by being on stage.
Foster Care Unplugged is the organization behind the play, and they’re doing amazing things for foster kids. They offer all kinds of services like advocacy, therapy, and community outreach to help kids overcome the challenges they face. The play is a chance to bring attention to the unique needs of foster kids and provide a fun and creative outlet for them to express themselves.
ABOUT THE PLAY
In the play, Mel and Jay are faced with a big decision that tests their loyalty and relationship. Will they be able to stay together despite the challenges they face? You’ll have to come and see the play to find out!
Through advocacy, non-traditional therapeutic programming, and community service, we aim to provide a holistic approach to healing and growth. Our programs are designed to address the unique needs of each individual and help them overcome the challenges they face. – Foster Care Unplugged
By supporting programs like Foster Care Unplugged and their plays, enriching lives through performance-based therapy, we will show the youth they are seen and matter. We can make a real difference in the lives of kids going through tough times. So come out and enjoy this show, and let’s help create a brighter future for foster care youth!
