In-School Residency: Reader’s Theatre

Bring traditional folktales from around the world to life in your classroom!
Students will work with a professional teaching artist to rehearse and perform a reading-level appropriate short script…each young actor will have a speaking role.
Each unique script is adapted specifically for this in-school residency, all with a message or moral that aligns with Social Emotional Learning considerations. Original script options include Anansi and Five, The Deer People, The Chanchasa Bird, The Cheetah and The Lazy Hunter, and Why The Sun and Moon Live in the Sky.
The classroom teacher will be given a menu of scripts to choose from that will best suit the interests of their class.
A teacher consultation will occur beforehand to ensure we serve the needs of your class.
