Testimonial

"It was an honor and a privilege to work with Anthony DePoto in my 6th grade classroom this year. From day one he engaged my classes with his charm and wit. His ability to bring our social studies curriculum alive with the craft of script writing and performance art was well beyond my expectations. I highly recommend his talents and look forward to the day when we can collaborate again. Bravo, Mr. DePoto!"

Description

These one-day or multi-day workshops are offered to educators and teachers of all kinds. The goal of this class is to help associates or co-workers learn to work more like an ensemble and establish stronger relationships. The class will consist of various challenging team/group improvisation exercises as well as trust exercises. The purpose is to educate teachers, administrators, and leaders in a different and collaborative way of learning and apply it to their students or colleagues. No prior theatre background necessary: it is never too late to begin to learn and incorporate basic theatre skills in your day-to-day.

Objectives

The objective of professional development workshops is to help adults find an alternative way of teaching and managing. Participants will utilize their imagination and creativity in ways that encourage mental growth. A strong component of this class is communication; participants will learn how to speak to one anther not only verbally but non-verbally as well. The skills learned during the time with Anthony are encouraged to be applied to the participants' students, clients, and peers.
