In this workshop, parents and children will step into the world (worlds!) of play and make-believe, transforming into wizards, giants, goblins, museum statues, security guards, superheroes, and countless characters of their own invention! Through a series of fun physical theater games, participants will develop confidence in front of an audience while practicing collaboration and active listening–and laughing a lot!
