You won’t snooze at TADA! Youth Theater sleepover

There’s no snoozing on the playbill, when TADA! Youth Theater presents a fun-filled performance “Sleepover,” from July 12 through Aug. 3.

Pre-teen angst is the star of the show, as tweens Simone and Mia worry about time-honored pre-teen frets about fitting in, boys, and of course who to invite and leave out of the sleepover of the century. Original music features songs about sleepwalkers and cute pizza delivery boys.

“Sleepover” is great for children 3 years and older. Pillows and pajamas are optional, but songs and snacks a must!

“Sleepover,” July 12 through Aug. 3. Tuesdays to Fridays at noon and 2 pm, and Saturdays at 2 pm and 4 pm. Tickets are $8 for children and $20 for adults.

TADA! Youth Theater [15 W. 28th St., second floor, (212) 252–1619 X 04, www.tadatheater.com].

Speakitaly NYC

<p>SPEAKITALY NYC offers stimulating and entertaining lessons for children 0 to 16 years through a wide combination of activities based on the communicative approach anchored in the Common European Framework of Reference: active learning (group work, role plays, etc.) and practice exercises aimed to improve listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Kids will start speaking and using Italian in a very natural way.&nbsp; Small classes capped at 6 students to make sure each one gets the needed attention and facilitate learners' progress.&nbsp;</p> <p>Our method is driven by a didactic method that is the result of constant updates, professional certifications and more than 10 years of experience in working with non-native speakers from different native languages and levels of knowledge.</p> <p>Our aim is to develop a range of Italian language skills while improving accuracy that will enable the students and participants to interact without stress or feeling rushed. We want to help those in the community really embrace not only the true culture in Italy but the Italian culture within New York City&hellip; Who doesn&rsquo;t love what Italy represents in the kitchen, in history &amp; in the arts?</p> <p>Speakitaly wants to support multilingual families who want to learn a new language or pass along their ancestor&rsquo;s heritage and culture. Raffaella, the founder said: "We see language awareness and intercultural sensitivity as the milestones for an inclusive society. Italian, like all other languages, is an enrichment and a growth in every way. Vi aspettiamo!"</p>
