For teens, the animals represent spirit characters in a hard-driving rap ‘n roll opera
“If we’d had this program before, we wouldn’t have ended up at YDDC in the first place,” -- Teen at
Teens add their own hip-hop, rap and rhythm and blues music to our stageplay to create a "rap 'n roll Opera. Upon agreeing to the Terms of Use they can even write their own plays in which our Bullyproof animals help their characters meet the challenges in their own lives.
Learning BULLYPROOF concepts, script writing, creating rap numbers, rehearsing, and performing the show gives troubled youth vital tools to begin rebuilding their lives.
Teachers, youths, and non-profit local groups who accept our AGREEMENT can download the SCRIPT HERE and our copyrighted music: YA GOTTA BE BULLYPROOF Music by Felton Pilot, Lyrics by Arthur Kanegis.

"When we started rehearsals, some of the kids scared the living daylights out of me. Now after doing the play, these same ‘tough-guys’ greet me with hugs."
"I read THE LEGEND OF THE BULLYPROOF SHIELDS and I cried, I cheered, and shared my excitement and joy with my fellow workers. I loved the opera. It is very moving and entertaining. Your integration of the many powerful concepts of power, race, search, culture, and belief is superb."
