About This Activity
Bring the world of the stage to life in this hands-on Props Workshop! Students will explore how everyday objects transform into magical storytelling tools for the stage. From designing and crafting props to learning how they’re safely used in performances, participants will gain behind-the-scenes insight into an essential part of theater. Best of all, some of the props created in this workshop will be used in Stage Kids’ production of Matilda—giving students the exciting opportunity to see their work come to life on stage. Perfect for creative kids who love building, imagining, and making theater magic happen! Prerequisite: Intro to Theater-1 and Intro to Theater-2 Instructor: Melinda Gilliver CLASS/WORKSHOP ATTENDANCE POLICY Education is the core of Stage Kids’ programs—this is where kids develop most! Participation in a Stage Kids class is, therefore, a REQUIREMENT for participating in a show. Intro to Theater -1 (ITT-1) & Intro to Theater -2 (ITT-2) must be taken first. (Simultaneous participation in a show and a core class is allowed.) For ALL students who take ITT-1 & ITT-2, no more than TWO (2) classes can be missed throughout the duration of the class session in order to fulfill the core class requirement and earn eligibility to take elective classes in the future. If a student takes ITT-1 or ITT-2 and misses more than 2 classes during the session, they must retake the class at a future date. For show participants only, no more than TWO (2) classes can be missed throughout the duration of ANY class session in order to fulfill the class requirement for show participation. If more than two classes are missed, your child's eligibility for future shows may be impacted. For show participants only, attendance on BOTH days of the workshop is required in order to fulfill the class requirement for show participation. If one or both workshops are missed your child’s eligibility for future shows may be impacted.
