Instructors: June Roseberry and Deneen Underwood

Our Shakespeare Program aims to teach all aspects of performing arts – behind the scenes and center stage. Students will explore all aspects of theatrical production including stage terminology, storytelling, scenery, props, costuming, choreography and acting. This program encourages creativity, originality and freedom through performance. Students will feel a great sense of accomplishment having participated in every aspect of their year-end theatrical production.

The students wear period costumes. Costume fittings are very exciting for the children. There is a complete dress rehearsal the afternoon before the play.
Original Shakespeare comedy scripts are edited to 8-10 pages leaving material that is suitable for young children. The children begin working on memorizing their lines during the first month of school, so by the end of May, they are very familiar with their characters and lines.
Grades 1-6 usually have 4-15 lines. Kindergarteners have 1-3 lines. Preschoolers have non-speaking performing parts or participate as sign carriers. The sign carriers wear costumes and cone hats and carry signs announcing each Act or Scene.
