The Lyric Foundation is expanding its enterprise by joining forces with Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights to create a performance-based education program centered around human rights and social justice. The program starts on October 15, 2015 and culminates on Dec 10, 2015, Human Rights Day, with a student performance of Ariel Dorfman’s play Speak Truth to Power, Voices from Beyond the Dark. The goal of this program is for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to collaborate with LA high schoolers from all backgrounds and experiences, and to attend classes and rehearsals that accomplish the greater goal of giving a voice to social issues.
