Thespian Adventures--Gareth

posted @ Thursday, July 02, 2009 4:13 PM

 

The same weekend we went to Drumheller for Daegan’s birthday, both boys had their final performances from their drama classes—Gareth on Friday, Daegan on Saturday. It was a busy time! Gareth took a class called “Lions, Tigers and Bears am I” which combined visual arts and drama. One class an art instructor took them and the kids created the sets and costumes; next class a drama instructor helped them create their play and rehearse—back and forth for the 8-10 weeks. Gareth LOVED it! In their play, the kids were different animal characters, who went on a quest through different regions (water, underground, forest, volcano) to find the 4 pieces of a treasure map. Once they found the map, they found the treasure chest—filled with chocolate coins! Here’s some pics (hover your mouse over for details):

Crawling underground (that's Gareth just coming thru)

How will they get across the lava? (I thought the kids did a great job on the sets--these are 4 and 5 year olds!) 

We found the map! Everyone party!

Finally--the chocolate coin. (Which he generously shared with his brother).
