This is a creative drama workshop based on the much–adored fable The Wizard of Oz. It involves the use of various props, which encourages one to think out of the box and create original fun pieces of drama based on the delightful children’s classic. The workshop not only helps sheds inhibitions but also stimulates creativity and spontaneity. It also includes improvisations, costume designing and mimes.
