A Script for Every Voice,
A Stage for Every Girl

International Girls Ensemble's After School Educational Theatre Program builds a strong sense of empowered ensemble through self-discovery, public speaking, and imaginative play, all while fostering activism and leadership skills.

International Girls Ensemble serves schools in the Bronx, Harlem, the Lower East Side, Queens, and the Capital Region, creating a safe space where participants feel heard, seen, and valued.
