From Page to Stage
In From Page to Stage, students learn to adapt their favorite stories (or original written work) for a theatrical performance. Participants are guided through the process of script development, beginning acting, (both improvisational and scripted), and staging, in bringing the work to life. Theater vocabulary, discipline, and traditions are taught. The From Page to Stage workshop fosters creativity, focus, and collaboration. The Teaching Artist can also work with students to create monologues or scenes directly from their own life experiences.

“It exposed students to an area of learning that they may not ordinarily participate and appreciate. Some students discovered their "hidden talents" that were brought out by the visiting artist.”

“Some of the students shocked us on how much they were "into" writing and performing their mini plays. One student said, "I hope I get to do this again next year!" (and he is not a student you would think would enjoy performing.)”
