Fairytale Theatre
In this class we will learn all about fairytales! How are
characters created? What makes a fairytale entertaining?
What makes a fairytale timeless? How are historical fairy-
tales different from modern ones? Once we answer these
questions, students will create their own fairytales and
bring them to life on stage! At the end of the course, we
will invite our families and friends to come see our
amazing play!
