You may agree that theatre is a special fairy-tale world, and it is often not easy to get into the backstage of it. We invite children to a series of creative classes, during which they will create a performance of their own, getting to know all the stages of its making.

At the classes, children will remember their favourite fairy tale characters, create theatre props with their own hands and put on their own mini-performance, which they will show to their parents and friends together with the teacher! This series is aimed at developing children's creativity and imagination, and teamwork will help to make new friends and gain new impressions during the holidays!

At the third session, children will try themselves as theatre puppeteers: they will learn how to show emotions and personality of their characters through different movements, they will get into their roles together and find themselves at a real dress rehearsal! The teacher will help children to become a coherent theatre troupe and work in a team.

Young visitors will show the play to their parents and friends at the end of the third session. The guests will be able to enjoy the result of children's creative work, and perhaps someone will even think about a theatre career in the future. After the show, young visitors will be given thank-you Christmas gifts from the museum.
