In addition to performances of family-friendly one-hour adaptations of classic plays by Moliere, Shakespeare, and others, we offer workshops year-round for schools interested in deepening their students' involvement and interest in the wonderful world of classic theater. We are busy planning a fabulous season for 2008 - 2009. Here are just a few of your options!

PERFORMANCE:

Rip Van Winkle

Available Oct. - Dec., 2008. One hour, professional adaptation of Washington Irving's American Classic, Rip Van Winkle, performed at your school. With minimal sets and costumes, this melodrama is brought to life in the imaginations of your students by classically trained, professional actors.

EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS:

Intro To Theater

Class includes Vocal and Movement Exercises, Theater Games, Theater Vocabulary and an interactive discussion about the history of theater and its influence on today's TV and Film.

 

Intro To Shakespeare

Students will learn about Shakespeare's world, discuss characters and themes, and act parts of a play, improvising and paraphrasing lines to clarify and better understand Shakespeare's language! Class also includes brief warm up exercises in Voice and Movement.

 

 

These rates represent our cost of bringing our work to a single school or event. Since we are a non-profit corporation, often the rate can be paid all or in part thanks to generous grants from our fantastic sponsors and/or individual donors. Won't you consider helping us bring the magic of classic theater to today's families?
