Dyslexia St. Louis will host a free interactive workshop for parents and educators to learn more about dyslexia and how it manifests for students in the classroom.
This free workshop is presented before performances of Eddie & Vinnie, a new production from Metro Theater Company at the Grandel Theatre.
In the play, Eddie is an unstoppable artist with a uniquely beautiful mind – and his best friend is a gecko. Together, the pair spends hours making intricate and beautiful puzzles. But he’ll be solving worse puzzles in summer school if he can’t get his grades up. In a last-ditch effort, Eddie teams up with the overly helpful new girl for the dreaded end-of-year report. Will their presentation on MC Escher save his grades? Eddie & Vinnie reminds us all that there is more than one way to learn – and more than one way to shine. Best enjoyed by ages 6 - 12. Approximate run time is 60 minutes with no intermission. Learn more about Eddie & Vinnie here.
