Dear Teachers,
These study guides have been prepared by the staff of the Theatre Institute at Sage to help you prepare your students to see the play and to work the performance into your curriculum. In addition to background on the author, story and production history, we have identified activities and areas of curriculum that relate directly to the story and the production. For example, an improvisational activity can be used to explore character relationships as preparation for a writing exercise, constructing a model of the set can be used to explore technology, geometry and physics and a visual art activity can be used to identify community members. It is our objective to suggest ideas for the creative, intellectual, social, physical and emotional development of your students. We believe that drama, music and dance activities are vital to a child’s development!
ENJOY THE SHOW!!!
