Middle Tennessee State University Drama Team

This afternoon they performed for the mamas and tots nutrition program here and were a huge hit. They have performed for over 600 kids and families in 5 villages so far. The cast is 6 college students from MTSU and one HS student who is the professors nephew. The show is 20 minutes with a message (anger management, dental hygiene and hand washing). They wrote it in a theater class this year in English then had it translated into Spanish and learned it even though most of them know little or no Spanish. Impressive. There is some music which their audiences really like. The drama team performed for the Los Robles school minus one class since the teacher was at Inservice and they don't use substitutes.

The food is good, homemade tortillas at every meal. The Los Robles school is using the stove we installed last year to make a nutritious drink daily supplied by the government,  it is a variety of drinks including one made of rice, one of wheat and incaperina.

Thanks drama team for a great humanitarian experience!! This is a great reminder that every talent can be used to help others!
