Theatre Workshops (3x) for Kids (5 to 8 years)

Jeux Dramatique is an improvisational theatre workshop where children use cloths of various shapes, colors, and sizes as props to create their own roles and spaces. They act out stories, choosing to be anything from stones and the sun to animals and people, fostering limitless imagination.

This three-session workshop helps children explore social roles through stories, such as a bear nursing a sick tiger, teaching concepts like 'giving' and 'receiving.' It includes relaxation exercises and fun games to enhance the experience.

Barbara, with a background in acting and theatre pedagogy from Berlin, has extensive experience in various projects, including a children’s circus tour in Germany. She emphasizes group dynamics, creativity, and social learning over final performance.

Limited to 8 participants (5 to 8 years old). $35 total for all sessions per child. Bookings close Monday, 30th September at 2pm. Book here: https://www.riverside.org.nz/event-details/theatre-workshops-3x-for-kids-5-to-8-years
