MARC Actors
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities participate in acting classes weekly and create original plays to share with the wider MARC and Middletown community. This on-going program between Oddfellows Playhouse and MARC has led to participants gains in communication, confidence and strengthened their community.
This program can be adapted for other organizations that serve a similar population. Contact dic@oddfellows.org with inquiries.
