On March 8th at 10:30am, we will host Brave Little Company's Meet the Author program! The new book A School Play, by Troy Scheid with illustrations by Cornelia Li, is a children's picture book about creating your own play - and it's also a ready-to-act script! In this 1-hour workshop, kids will learn warm-ups for your voice, body, and imagination - and then jump straight in to acting out the play! Finally, they will learn a theatre game that teaches them to create everything they need to perform their own plays - no experience necessary. Ideal for kids aged 7-10 and their families.
Join us for an afternoon of board games! We’ll provide a mix of old standards and new classics. Bring along some friends, or make new ones!
