Katy Green teaching drama workshops at the Hawkesbury Regional Gallery
The Open Programs have wrapped up another successful series of dance and shadow puppetry workshops in Tern 2 for people with a disability in Western Sydney.
Drama Workshops
At the Hawkesbury Regional Gallery tutor Katy Green made maximum use of the Gallery space by engaging the participants directly with the works of the current exhibition. Katy developed circus theme exercises & activities based on the exhibition: Circus in Australian Art, making the exhibition experience more rich and meaningful for the participants by making it a multi sensory experience – an excellent example of good practice.
Shadow Puppetry Workshops
At The Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre tutor Stephen Carr facilitated a wonderful shadow puppetry show with participants for an end of term public performance. Participants were actively involved in all the puppet creation as well as maneuvering the puppets during the performance to tell the story of Myths and Legends from the sea.
