The Cat's Grin Performance followed by a
Special Series of Workshops / Rehearsals leading to a
performance or two by the children. Consisting of
Introductory Theatre Games to relax the children and introducing
the important dramatic skills of vocal and physical clarity,
listening, and use of imagination. This will be
followed by work on characters and ideas from stories linked to a
central theme, e.g.., Pirates. We will then rehearse our Show, which
the children will be presenting to their School, Families, Friends,
General Public. During rehearsals we will look at how to portray
the various aspects of the story e.g., characters, setting, words and
atmosphere - in a dramatically engaging way. For this purpose we
will look at the use of movement, body, music,
sound plus of course, narration. There may be sets to
paint, props and masks to make and costumes to wear. |
All Day Entertainment for a special event. Choose a Show lasting 1
hour followed by a Treasure Hunt and Games and Face Painting. The
Wind in The Willows is an ideal show for this event. |

SHOUT
2007 |
We would like to thank Maggs Latter for arranging for
The Cat's Grin to run a day of theatre games and rehearsals leading to a
performance of three of Aesop's Fables with children from Elmbridge
Borough Council during SHOUT. We were amazed at how quickly our
young cast learnt this show. After two hours of theatre games and
improvisations in the morning, they then took only two and a half hours
to learn and rehearse the entire productions, which was presented to
Mums and Dads at the end of the afternoon. Many congratulations to
our young actors and actresses and a Big Thankyou to the team from
Elmbridge Borough Council for their invaluable help during the day. |
