Through the art of puppetry and storytelling, children develop their sense of expression, interaction, speech, body language, self awareness, imagination, and creativity. They will gain confidence learning more about themselves and others through a positive and supportive approach. This take on theater is about the process and what is learned along the way.

​Natalie Haines is a community educator & artist. She will be teaching this class workshop once per week for five weeks. Students will need to attend the full 5 week course (5 Classes) from start to completion. The class begins with a focus on voice and storytelling, and culminates with a Balinese-style shadow puppet presentation. Friends and Families will be invited to attend the presentations.
Performance on October 15th: family and friends welcome!
Students must attend each class, as this is a series leading to a production.
