The Caged Parrot

Alice

Inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
by Lewis Carroll

Alice is about a young girl trying to make sense of who she is in a distorted world filled with challenges and complexities that confuse her. Constantly encountering strange rules in Wonderland, Alice goes on a quest to understand herself, her perceptions and her identity.

Centering on significant themes such as IDENTITY, UNIQUENESS, RESPONSIBILITY, COURAGE, RESILIENCE and ADAPTABILITY, our programme will incorporate Drama, Language and Music that will take your students on a journey of discovery through the imagination. Stepping into Alice’s shoes, they will share their thoughts and feelings re-enacting scenes through physicalisation and verbalisation. Through our Drama workshop, your students will learn about themselves and their strengths, what it means to be unique, and how to manage the ever-changing world they live in and adjust to those changes.

Hansel, Where are You?

Inspired by the Brothers Grimm Tale

Things are not what they seem in this recreation of the classic tale by the Brothers Grimm. Hansel has mysteriously disappeared into the dark forest which pushes Gretel to find strength within herself to search for him and uncover the truth. Despite knowing the dangers lurking within, she steps into the unknown only to realise that the search is futile. Abandoned by her father, she meets a woman who invites Gretel to her home. Faced with dilemmas, Gretel must now make her choice.

Hansel, Where are You? is about Gretel’s journey, focusing on issues such as ABANDONMENT, LOSS, UNCERTAINTY, MORAL DILEMMAS, and FAMILY CONFLICT, eventually driving the key messages of COURAGE, RESILIENCE, and RESPONSIBILITY. It will offer your students a platform to share their thoughts and feelings, discuss and make sense of the world of the narrative. Our workshop will further unpack the above themes through a multitude of Drama activities that will eventually spur your students to draw from their own personal experiences, ultimately finding meaning, making connections and offering possible resolutions.
