Workshop Programs
SKILLS-BUILDING PROGRAMS DESIGNED SO THAT EACH SESSION STANDS ON ITS OWN!
Our most flexible year-round option, Workshop Programs provide participants with high-impact, socially driven activity periods in a variety of themes and formats.
Fairy Tales Around The World!
A fantastical workshop program where learners travel far around the globe from the comfort of their classroom. Each week participants will experience diverse cultures' folklore to explore relevant themes through music, movement, and improv activities. Which nurtures imagination and empathy through the world of storytelling. We set attainable goals each week to keep every student engaged and excited, no matter their background or experience.
Fairy tales include: El Puma Recibe un Leccion (Mexico), The Tortoise, the Dog and the Farmer (Nigeria), and How The Stars Fell Into The Sky (Navajo).
Created for: Grades K - 2
Ideal for: Literacy, SEL, MLL, and ESL

Go For Gold! *NEW*
Sports and theatre collide in one high‑energy workshop series! This program explores how the excitement of athletics and the creativity of performance share the same core skills: communication, collaboration, focus, and resilience.
Inspired by the Olympic spirit, participants will jump into movement, improv games, and playful challenges that strengthen social‑emotional skills while keeping them active and engaged. Each week, they’ll discover a new Olympic sport and connect it to theatre fundamentals—like delivering the perfect post‑game interview, creating celebration dances, or handling tough losses with grace.
Created for: Grades 3-8
