Successful presentation of the musical “The Boy from Oz” to benefit the students of CASP

Nearly a thousand spectators attended the beautiful Municipal Theatre yesterday in a sell-out event to view the musical “The Boy from Oz,” staged by the “Prelude” Cultural Association to benefit the students of the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru (CASP) and their families.

Numerous figures from politics and the world of culture and representatives of the various media enjoyed this fantastic musical directed by Mateo Quiarella under the vocal direction of Denisse Dibós.

Distinguished national artist Marco Zunino masterfully played the role of Australian composer and showman Peter Allen. He was accompanied by first-class supporting actors Denisse Dibós, Erika Villalobos, Elena Romero, Sergio Lois, Anahí de Cárdenas and Natalia Salas, among other great artists.

This is the third time “Prelude” has offered an event to benefit CASP. In 2011, it was “Cabaret” and in 2012 “Chicago,” both beating box office records.

Revenues from the musical play will go entirely to the education of the students of CASP and their families, who in this way will be able to continue their learning at CASP, integrate into society and become independent, productive and happy people.

Dr. Liliana Mayo, founder and general director of CASP, Miki Miró Quesada de Romaña, founder and honorary president of the Assistance Committee, and Ximena Salmón, the current president of the Assistance Committee, thank the entire cast of the musical “The Boy from Oz,” the production team of the “Prelude” Cultural Association and all the assistants that came with us to the event to benefit the students of CASP and their families.

Special thanks goes to PwC Peru for joining our initiative and for motivating their workers through the area of corporate social responsibility to collaborate with our institution.

They also thank the press in general for the support given to this laudable work in favor of people with different abilities.
