With the beginning of a new school year, and especially during these unprecedented times, it’s a good moment to refresh and refocus. The arts are here to help us explore, discover, and learn. So, let’s listen and think, use our imaginations, and be creative in our daily lives. All of us at HEARTS PW wish all students and teachers a wonderful school year ahead.
HEARTS is incredibly proud to support this inspiring initiative to bring our Port Washington community together through song. Kudos to Allison Shapiro Friedman for organizing this wonderful group of community members, singers and instrumentalists of all ages, sharing a song of hope, positivity, and belief to bring joy to the Port Washington community!
UPDATE, July 30, 2020: Due to the overwhelming demand for this program, registration has now reached capacity. Thank you to all who signed up! If you are still interested in this virtual theater program, please contact Jesse Weil to be added to a waitlist. We hope to bring future programs like this to Port Washington, so stay tuned! ❤️
Attention Theater Lovers Grades 6 through 9! Hearts PW is proud to support a new virtual summer theater program run by Schreiber High School alumni Jesse Weil! Recently returned from a year on tour as one of the leads in Broadway’s Fiddler on the Roof (directed by tony-winner Bartlett Sher), Weil runs "ConnectTheatricals," an organization focused on performance projects meant to help students come together and learn.

Weekly online classes, focusing on either playwriting or acting, will provide students with personalized instruction, important skills, and an opportunity to prepare and perform full length pieces on zoom. Classes run from August 5 - September 3. Registration is open through Friday, July 31, 2020. More details here: https://bit.ly/HEARTSConnectTheatricals
