Trainings

Welcome 2010: Workshops for Transformation!

Dear TC friends and supporters,

Already, so quickly, 2009 is at a close.  This year has meant many changes for TheaterChange * TeatroCambio;  but of course, change is what we are all about!  In this case, change has meant two new babies!  TC facilitator Omar Vargas and his wife Rocio welcomed their baby Luis Emilio into the world on August 11th,  and TC assistant and star supporter Karla Halloran welcomed her daughter Elizabeth Xochitl into the world earlier in the summer!  Congratulations, and welcome to these two bright little beings!  May we together struggle to create a future for them that is brighter and more just than what we live in today, and may that struggle bring us also beauty and love in 2010 and onwards.
