Our workshops are developed in the philosophy that drama
skills are synonymous with life skills, and contribute to
the educational, social, and aesthetic growth and development
of our students. We offer program opportunities in a number
of settings, with each setting dictating goals and objectives
of the program.

Our after school program represents
a contractual partnership with individual schools. All
The World's A Stage will design and implement drama
workshops that provide students an introduction to the
creative drama and acting process. Our workshops culminate
with a showcase presentation for the student’s
family and friends.
Typically, our workshops consist of one 90-minute session
per week, over a 10 - 16 week period. However, all partnerships
are designed to fit the needs of our partner community,
with a curriculum sequential in nature that introduces,
reinforces, and expands drama/theatre concepts.
|
Similar to our after school program, the community based
workshops are made available for youth, community, and civic
organizations. This program provides the added design feature
developed around a theme consistent with the contracting
partner’s mission and educational outreach objectives.
