Support ITLPThe International Theatre and Literacy Project brings theatre artists to developing countries to conduct playwriting workshops for students and teachers in rural villages. ITLP uses dramatic activities to teach English, develop independent thinking and self-empowerment to help young people advance their educational and employment opportunities and give them a voice in their communities in order to enable growth, change and community development.

The Sky is so Far from the Land, Rebecca Blumhagen's inspiring documentary about ITLP's 2011 playwriting workshops in Tanzania, can now be viewed on our website. In a place where there is currently no government funding for arts programs, and the education system is a kickback to the test-driven system that was established during British Colonialism, this film explores the universal need for theatre arts, storytelling, and the power of discovering individual voice for the human spirit.
