No Dogs Allowed! - SOLD OUT
Written by "Maria" from Sesame Street - Sonia Manzano 
Music by Stephen Lawrence
Lyrics by Billy Aronson
Leaving the Bronx for a day at the lake is a real treat for Iris and her close-knit, extended family. Despite Papi’s instructions to pack light, Mami brings enough food for the tri-state region and Iris sneaks in the family dog. After all, El Exigente is part of la familia. The trip is marked by memorable misadventure, but the family finally arrives at the lake, only to discover there are … No Dogs Allowed! Humor and cooperation save the day in this warm and cheery family venture.

Throughout the school year, the Arvada Center offers several performances of this unique art form so children with special needs can enjoy and participate in live theater alongside their peers.
Shadow-interpreted theater utilizes specially trained American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters to perform as “shadows” on stage alongside actors. Shadow theater marries sign language with choreographed movement, allowing the sign language to become a seamless part of the theater experience. In this way, audience members who are deaf, hard of hearing or language delayed can simultaneously see and “hear” the complete theater performance in the same way as hearing audiences. Shadow theater is also enjoyed by hearing audiences as an innovative art form and educational opportunity. Similar to watching a film with subtitles, viewers benefit from a rich bilingual experience and gain an appreciation for another language.
Hope you can join us for this very special production!
