Program Description

Outdoor Theater Program

Have you ever heard of Joe the Sea Lion? Most people haven’t. Until now! Joe was moved from the Central Park Zoo to the Prospect Park Zoo for being too loud! This week we will uncover the story of Joe and will create a mini-musical of the Sea Lion’s untold story.

SHARED PERFORMANCE

Each week culminates in a socially distanced Friday afternoon outdoor sharing at 2:00 PM for a limited audience of family and friends. Sign up for one week or for the entire summer!
