A
fabulous program in its 14th year designed to merge the
development
of writing skills with Theatre.
Your
students write stories and we bring them to life on-stage!
Our actor/teacher leads your students through a Writing
Rally – a workshop for creative writing. Students
then develop and write stories, submitting them to us in
October. Two stories from each school are selected and
adapted into short plays. Magical Theatre Company returns
in the Spring to perform these world premieres for your
entire school.
