Testimonial
"Your performance yesterday was a true gift to the young people and the adults in the audience. It was a tremendous experience for them and one they will remember for the rest of their lives. I am qualified to say that your work is a model to which other artists and arts educators may well aspire. Thank you for what you gave our children yesterday!"

Description
World of Wonder is theater that transports students around the planet using magic, comedy, pantomime, story, and animation. From the human animation of shadows made with just a pair of hands to a film made of actual cut out shadows, this is a unique and original theater production that will inspire your students.
Objectives
The mission of Leland Faulkner’s World of Wonder is to create a feast for the heart and mind, to share the wonder that is always present, and to have all of us pass that sense of wonder to those around us. In the process Leland teaches us to perceive the ordinary with fresh eyes, and to see the possibilities in the everyday. Leland’s performance also teaches about tolerance without preaching. It teaches positive understanding of multiple cultures, and does so in an entertaining manner.
