Playwright: Lynn Joffe, Adam Howard // Director: Lynn Joffe

Children select from a variety of original and classical nursery rhymes, stories and myths, rendered on screen, in song and visuals.  A nutshell summary of the elements of theatre, each story contains a narrative, a song, an activity, bringing out each child’s innate creativity in a musical way.  Amplifications of the story include making recycled musical instruments, character masks, shadow puppetry, puzzles and games.

I can’t think of a better way to show students what creativity around stories can mean and how exciting learning can be …a breath of fresh air for them.

The energy, thoughtfulness and creativity in your show was breath-taking– It appeals to ‘children’ of all ages and the words and music are so clever and appealing. You have really created a unique suite of teaching resources – words, music, creativity and thought.
