About the plays:

“Sleeping Beauty” 

This production by Richard Shaw is a unique take on the classic fairy tale featuring storytellers, fantasy characters, adventure, music and dance and a love story. This play is suitable for children of ages 6 to 12. 

Anne and the Tiger Raja”

This instructive play by David Eliet is the story of a young girl called Anne who is bullied by two older girls on a playground. When she threatens to get her older brother to beat them up, she is overheard by Isaac who calms the children down. He then encourages the three girls to cooperate by involving them and two additional friends to help him tell a story. It is the story of Raja, the Sumatran tiger and the Mouse Deer of Borneo, who thwarts Raja's evil plans with his sharp thinking skills.
