THE BUZZ: Travel through Arabian nights at P.S. 186s Aladdin
Students at P.S. 186 invite you to hop on a magic carpet and fly to their presentation of Aladdin Kids made possible by a grant from the Walt Disney Company.
The Bensonhurst school applied for the grant in November and was one of five schools in the city to receive it. The main advantage of the grant is the services the school receives from the professional teaching artists of the Disney theatrical department.
They are experienced actors who are also teachers, explained Sam Crick, ExpandED program director of NIA Community Services Network, who collaborated with P.S. 186 teachers in preparing for the play and also runs the afterschool program year round.
