Over the course of 8 weeks children who have completed grades 3-5 will learn how to work together as a team to create short plays that will spring spontaneously from their imaginations.

Each week your child will learn a new playwriting concept that not only teaches them how to think in three act structures but also how to work collaboratively to make responsible choices that effect the society of the world they are building and, in doing so, develop a healthy sense of identity.

The program will culminate in a performance of their play on Friday, August 7, at 6:00PM. Children will have the option to participate in this performance if they wish to do so.

Missing more than once class in this session may result in your child being unable to participate in the final performance. Please only register if your child will be able to attend at least 7 out of the 8 weeks of this program.

We are striving to provide inclusive and accessible programs. If there is anything we can do to be more inclusive or accessible, please reach out to the event organizer in advance of the program via phone or email.
