Fostering Curiosity and Creativity:
A Learning Journey Adventure
in Theatre and Drama
At ACT 3 International, our Theatre and Drama Workshop Program is crafted to provide students with a holistic and impactful learning experience.
By immersing them in the world of live theatre, we ignite their imagination, deepen their appreciation for storytelling, and foster critical thinking skills. This unique initiative, inspired by children’s literature, combines an exhilarating theatre performance with an interactive drama workshop. Students not only enjoy the magic of live theatre but also gain insights into stagecraft during a Q&A session designed for them. The subsequent drama workshop contextualizes the story, encouraging discussion, theme exploration, and self-discovery.
Our program is more than just a day at the theatre; it’s an educational journey that nurtures creativity, critical thinking, and a love for literature and the arts.
