Lollipop Theater Network’s Annual Superhero Reveal took place on May 19th at the Harmony Gold Theater in West Hollywood. The event allows children to flex their creative muscles as they imagine what their superhero alter-ego would look like. Designers from the Costume Designers Guild accompanied pediatric patients they partnered with to reveal an incredible array of true superheroes. The children learned about the Costume Departments on TV and film sets and some were able to visit prop and costume houses that are not open to the public.
Lollipop Theater Network brings movies and entertainment to pediatric patients nationwide. Their programming consists of in-hospital screenings of current movies and visits with actors, directors, costume designers, artists, and more, along with online, interactive multiple weekly programs where patients from across the country can participate together. The programs provide connection and engagement for these children which helps alleviate the fear and isolation they face, offering them hope, inspiration, and laughter.
Support from the Golden Globe Foundation allows Lollipop programs to reach 10 Southern California hospitals, including those from lower-income communities.
