PAGE TO STAGE - gr. 2-3
Welcome to the BACKSTAGE PAGE for our PAGE TO STAGE families. Theater is a shared experience, often between actor and audience member, where one relies on the other for theater to happen. Our Kidstock! class is a shared experience between our Educational Artists and our students, but we also believe that our Kidstock! class is a shared experience between you and your child! We hope this page includes you in the creative and imaginative theater play we explore each week!

CURRICULUM
PAGE TO STAGE focuses on acting in a play and contributing ideas to the script. Students learn about stage acting through being cast in a play based on a storybook and learning about character development, props, blocking, line delivery, and memorization. Each student has the opportunity to write some of their own lines in the script, making the play unique with their creative ideas.
