Folklore Interactive Workshops

By Dan Ciba and Tony Murvin
Grades 3-7

Shakesperience’s new signature series of in-class Folklore workshops is designed to educate students on Fables, Folktales and Myths from various cultures.  Two actors demonstrate a honed teaching style to bring modern adaptations of these classic tales.  They lead the class in scenes featuring student performers.

This small group access to the Shakesperience Teaching Approach, and the balance of workshop and performance, allow for the highest levels of inclusiveness. This unique format permits the celebration of the spoken language and empowers students with confidence and public speaking skills.
The cost of the program brings our artists to your school for five, 45 minute workshops, all incorporated into the school's schedule. Each session is presented with substantial ties to language arts and theatre learning standards.

Testimonial

"Even students who are normally "too cool" for academic-based presentations were enthralled. The [workshop] was infused with humor and effectively communicated a myriad of information...For days after the workshop, the students were discussing the new information presented to them...Without a doubt, your workshop inspired and entertained my students."
