This summer, the Drama Desk
award-winning TADA! Youth Theater
presents the 90s pop musical, Game
Changers. A throwback to the popular
kids’ game shows of the 1990s, Games
Changers follows six young contestants,
each determined to be the fi rst
to make it to the top of Mt. Victory
and win the game. As the challenges
increase in diffi culty and the stakes
heighten, each contestant learns more
about themselves and each other, ultimately
leading to the realization that
in order to win the game, they must do
something that’s never been done before.
Bronx children appearing in Game
Changers include: Navani Perez, 14, as
Maria; Jaden Gonzalez, 15, as Ian; Angela
George, 18, as Courtney, and Ysobel
Leonard, 12, as an understudy.
