Reader's Theatre - R4
with Melissa Platero
Ages: 8 - 11
Reader's theatre is a form of drama where participants read from a script to tell a story. Unlike a traditional play, actors do not memorize their lines and the performance is minimal, using little or no props, costumes, or sets. The focus is on vocal expression and interpretation to convey the story and characters to the audience.

Students will learn the safe use of weapons in the re-creation of a famous swordfight from the stage, film, or television. Once they have learned how to safely use their weapon, they will memorize a short scene and create their own choreography.
Victorian Gothic Novel - R4
