Grade 1 visit to the Theater Festival 'Dramebaaz', Ms. Monica Garg Form Tutor Gr 1

Stories are a wonderful way of engaging with children and opening their eyes to the world!
As Dr. Suess puts it, “Oh! The places you’ll go!” On 4th Dec, Form 1 got the opportunity to be a part of an exciting experience through ‘The Dramabaaz Storytelling Festival’ which was a unique combination of story-telling through drama, Puppets, music, dance and Paper craft.
Since the start of the day the excitement was in the air as children were all charged up to take a day off from the classroom and enter the world of stories . At the festival they got an opportunity to capture various moments of emotions and expressions from the stories that were showcased.

Children were quite taken up by the first act which was Puppet show of ‘A Naughty Fly’. Then followed a colorful and amazing folk dance performance to which the children were spell bound. Children also witnessed a one act short play titled ‘The Dictionary
Salesman’ performed by brilliant little actors. The festival ended with children being part of puppet making and instrument making workshop and carried back a token of the same. It was a wonderful experience for the entire form 1 students as was evident from their chats on their way to back to school.
