Drama in the Woods

Standing People Together invites you to enroll in our Autumn 2020 Forest Exploratorium.

Like to Act or, at least, give it a try? Love to be outside? This may be for you!

Drama in the Woods is an 8-wk out-of-doors, at-a-distance after-school program for elementary age children. Participants will improvise stories, make masks, music and sets, and use movement to create and perform an original virtual production inspired by Uno’s Garden, Graeme Base’s story of a forest rich with phantasmagoric animal and plant life that is slowly and almost irretrievably eroded by the needs of the people who begin to inhabit and dominate that special place.

Our team will be based in our forest studio, and participating children will be in their backyards or local nature spaces with mobile devices where possible, and/or they will move outside to engage in nature-based activities and return inside for shared zoom sessions.

Thanks to the support of Sullivan Renaissance and our own team, we are offering this program at very low cost. We do ask for a small fee to register your child as places are limited and, please, attendance throughout the eight week program is necessary to make the production possible.
