Description

Shadow Stories: Exploring Story Elements Through Shadow Puppetry

Presented by: The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts

Facilitated by: Daniel Barash

Shadow puppetry, with its bold shapes, vivid colors, and dramatic movement, invites students to express their understanding through visual art, drama, and storytelling. In this workshop, discover how shadow puppetry can illuminate story elements, including character, setting, problem, and plot. Create shadow puppets, learn shadow puppetry performance techniques, and see how students can bring stories to life through a “Story Challenge Game.” See you in the land of shadows!
