Showcase

Programme Synopsis Children will experience the process of creating their own play. Using basic acting and improvisation skills, "Classic Fairytales Reinvented" blends the world of STEM and the world of fairytales. It bridges the divide between science and the arts. The students explore issues in classic fairy tales and develop original solutions to present them in a mini-performance. These fairytales utilize structured improvisations as a means to teach students production skills and movement awareness, two critical elements of a successful performance. Ad-libs and character development are encouraged. Students will get the opportunity to write their own script for a fairytale of their choice.

Point of Emphasis Not applicable
Lesson Goal #1 Allow students to become mini-playwrights through development of a fairytale script
