Drama in New Dawn

Today, Thursday, was the day Ann Gerson and I joined Judy at New Dawn High School for her drama workshop.  If I haven't said it before, which I know I have, these students are amazing. Judy was amazing. Her Kenyan theater friends who came along to help with the drama games were amazing.  It was inspiring to see Jude in her element and to see the students actively participating and having so much fun. Hans was happy to have some company for lunch.  He was gracious enough to move his class of teachers upstairs so we could have the large meeting space which was perfect for the games Judy was leading.  Here are a few pics from our activities. 





The highlight for me was seeing Casey again.  She was the student from last year that I really connected with who had shared her tragic story with me.  When I greeted her she remembered me and when I gave her a hug she just just wouldn't let go.  9 am in the morning and I was already in tears.
