LISTENING FAIRY TALES TO CREATING OWN PLAYS

Class plays have a significant place in the Waldorf curriculum. From first through twelfth grade, students bring ideas and themes from their curriculum onto the stage. Every student in the class is required to participate in the class play, even those who shy away from the spotlight. Working together, the class rises to the challenge of creating an experience for the audience; one where each student finds his or her place to shine. They learn lines and blocking, work on sets, lights, costumes, and props, and sometimes even tackle a musical as a team together.
