All funds raised at Make Believe on Broadway will
support Only Make Believe, a non-profit organization.
The mission of Only Make Believe (OMB) is to create
and perform original shows for children in hospitals
and care facilities.
In 2015, OMB will perform in 60 different facilities for
over 5,000 children. Since 1999, OMB has performed
for over 50,000 children.
All Only Make Believe shows are completely free-ofcharge to the children, families, and hospitals it
serves, which is why your support is so important. A
portion of your sponsorship is tax-deductible.

Only Make Believe (OMB) is dedicated to the principle that
freeing a child’s imagination is a valuable part of the healing
process.
A trio of talented OMB actors go into hospitals and care
facilities all over the New York City and Washington DC metro
areas to perform live, interactive theatre for children.
Our aim is to inspire joy and happiness, using the power of
make believe to fill hospital playrooms with song, dance,
movement and laughter. Each child is part of the storytelling
process and they become the stars of each show.
Your sponsorship of Make Believe on Broadway will ensure
that OMB can continue to provide its vital program for
children who are unable to experience theatre
for themselves.

“I used to never talk. My therapist calls it selectively mute. But when Only
Make Believe started performing, it looked fun and I wanted to join in. So I
started talking. I get to be in all the shows and use my imagination. That’s the
best part.”
Zachary, 12 Years Old, A. Harry Moore School for Special Needs
“This is the first time he has smiled… since his stay.”
Parent of an OMB Star
“OMB has been coming to NYU Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine from
the beginning. It remains a favorite of our patients, families, and staff. OMB is
an invaluable part of our therapeutic programming.”
Lisa DelGuidice, Sr. Recreational Therapist, RUSK Rehabilitation
“It’s an hour for kids to be kids, instead of survivors. It’s a chance for them to
‘shine’ and ‘get the spotlight’ and to be ‘stars.’”
Michal Ziolkyahu, Drama Therapist, Brookdale University Hospital, Brooklyn
“The hour a child spends with Only Make Believe is the most
therapeutic hour of their entire week.”
Staff Member, Mt. Sinai Hospital
