Barrel of Monkeys
/[Thanks to Jarrell McAlister]
Barrel of Monkeys (BOM) is a Chicago-based ensemble of actor/educators that creates an alternative learning environment in which children share their personal voices and celebrate the power of their imaginations.
BOM accomplishes this through creative writing workshops and in-school performances of children's stories. BOM also engages the broader community in support of the visions of children through public performances of their work (see video).
