Where do performances and workshops take place?
Performances may be scheduled at your
venue or at Slobodkina House.
What is the best audience size?
The ideal audience size at Slobodkina
House is 40. At your venue, we can accommodate audiences both small
and large, from 20 to over 1,000 children.
What kind of staging or room is required?
Ann Marie generally works from the
front of a room and then moves through the audience. A stage is not
required unless the group is extremely large. Free space should be
about 10 feet wide by 4 feet deep, but this varies with room type
and set up.
Does Ann Marie bring her own props?
Does the venue need to provide anything?
Ann Marie brings her own props. We
need a 3-prong electrical outlet and a chair. Children should be
seated in small groups or rows with some spacing in between to allow
Ann Marie to move among them. A room with a blackboard is preferred
for the Lyric/Music workshop.
We would like to schedule
performances and/or workshops in several localities. How can this be
arranged?
We can schedule performances in
several different places within a general locale if there is
sufficient time for setup, breakdown and travel between
performances. This is arranged on an individual basis.
Do the children receive a memento?
For
CAPS TALES
and
STORYTIME PLUS,
each child receives a black and white 11 x 14" drawing to take home
and color. Workbooks are provided to
students in
LYRIC/MUSIC WORKSHOPS.
What about children with special
needs?
Ann Marie has experience involving
all children in her workshops to the best of their abilities. If an
entire audience has special needs, she works with the
instructor/group leader to address specific concerns.
