Broadway Stages recently
hosted a group of young teens
to learn about the TV and film
industry, as well as green and
sustainable initiatives. This
group was part of the Berrie
Center Winter Fun Program,
an annual event where teens
with type 1 diabetes (T1D)
come together for four days of
empowering activities and experiences.
According to the CDC, this
health condition “can develop
at any age, but is usually diagnosed
in children, teens, and
young adults,” and it “accounts
for approximately 5-10% of the
more than 34 million people in
the United States who have
diabetes.”
During the day-long event
at Broadway Stages’ facilities
in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, the
teens were given a behind-thescenes
look at several sets. A
production assistant and crew
members from set construction
and design, provided their perspectives
about the business
and gave the teens a glimpse
into the varied and numerous
opportunities in the TV and
film industry to consider as the
teens plan their future education
and careers.
After touring the sets, the
group moved on to see the work
that Broadway Stages is doing
to support the environment.
They were greeted by Willis
Elkins, Executive Director of
the Newtown Creek Alliance
(NCA), an organization that
works to restore waterways,
and also stewards the educational
programming at Kingsland

The teens learned about the
work of NCA to restore, reveal
and revitalize Newtown Creek,
and toured the garden rooftop.
After a bit of nourishment,
they were then introduced to

farmer of Eagle Street Rooftop
Farm, located at another
of Broadway Stages’ film studios
in Brooklyn. With her
was Jessica Shavley, a Growing
Chefs educator and Eagle
St. apprentice alumna. Annie
and Jessica provided the kids
with information about urban
agriculture and showed them
how to make their own candles
infused with essential oils that
are beneficial for individuals
with diabetes.
It was a great day for everyone
at Broadway Stages, NCA
and Growing Chefs.
We hope to see some of these
young teens consider a future
in the TV/film industry, environmental
science or urban agriculture.
