Stories Alive for All!

Raleigh Little Theatre
Program Type: Workshop/Residency

Stories Alive for All!

Students of all abilities will participate in theatre exercises and create a dramatic story using the tools of an actor including body, voice, and imagination. The session begins with warm up exercises to explore characterization through movement and vocal expression. Then students activate a story by embodying the characters, interacting with one another, and the facilitator within the imagined world of that story. Teachers will also benefit from this program by learning techniques of creative expression that can be used after the residency.

Specific story requests may be submitted at the time of booking or a suggested list can be provided. This program is available as a one-time workshop or, since repeat visits can provide students additional time to develop comfort and confidence in drama classes, Stories Alive can also be facilitated as a residency consisting of 3-5 sequential classroom visits.

This residency can be designed to meet the learning needs of your group. The required planning meeting (in person or virtual) includes time for discussion of student needs and input on the preferred instructional methods. For students with disabilities or self contained classrooms our instructors will discuss any needed accommodations such as sensory friendly supports, alternate expressions for non verbal participants, supports for behavior challenges, etc.
