Love Triumphs at Huntington Theatre

On Thursday, April 3, more than 30 students from Esperanza Academy in Lawrence, Massachusetts traveled to the Huntington Theatre in Boston to see “ The Triumph of Love.”

The trip is the first immersion trip by the Kevin C. Kynock Foundation for the Arts this year and was supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council and Lawrence Cultural Council.

The students enjoyed a classic 18th century love story between a princess and her love. The princess must disguise herself to woo the prince. As the Huntington Theatre describes, “mistaken identities, hilarious complications and deeply felt desire collide head on with Rationalist Philosophy – and surprising romantic entanglements ensue!”

“We love being a part of the Kynock Arts Immersion program,” said the Esperanza school representative. “The organization shows a lot of dedication bringing art to our students.”

The Kynock Immersion Trip is one of two being planned with Esperanza Academy this spring under the grant from the MCC and LCC. Another group will head to the Speakeasy Stage for its production of “Ja Ja’s Hair Braiding” in May.
