A Little Dramatic Halloween Storytime

Join us for an energetic and interactive experience designed for children ages 2-6. Your child must be accompanied by a parent/guardian for the entirety of the program.

Using the actor’s tools of body, voice, imagination and collaboration, A Little Dramatic brings beloved children’s books to life through the use of creative drama, songs, and props. Teaching artists will guide the young participants through dramatic play and creative problem solving in concert with the selected storybook. This will be a special Halloween event, so costumes are strongly encouraged! There will also be Halloween themed craft activities to follow the storytime.

Parents, please fill out the sign up form with your information. Accepted applicants will be contacted via the email address provided on the form to provide additional information regarding the participating child(ren).
