Donkey Talk Productions is active in the community in many ways. Our flagship outreach is the Donkey Talk Project, a series of improv classes for youth where students are taught the fundamentals of acting for stage, learning basic mime, give and take, sharing focus, and of course, the power of saying "YES!" At the close of the series, the students produce a showcase for parents and the public to demonstrate what they have learned through games, standup comedy, and simple skits.
We actively serve churches, youth groups, public schools, and businesses alike through workshops and seminars that teach team building, cooperative efforts, and help to foster self esteem in a positive group setting. Our latest effort, the Arts Outlet, is a collaborative performing arts camp with Fusion Dance Company. Our next one-day workshop combines three different classes of jazz/hip hop, modern dance, and acting basics. Contact us for more details!

"Who let the wild donkey go free? Who untied his ropes?
I gave him the wasteland as
his home, the salt flats as his habitat.
He laughs at the commotion in the town; he
does not hear the driver's shout. He ranges the hills for his pasture and searches
for any green thing."
Job 39:5-8 |
