Cue the Creativity (The Hobbit)

Step into the spotlight with Cue the Creativity, a free weekly drop-in program designed to engage a wide range of ages, abilities and interests through the magic of theatre arts. In partnership with the renowned Stratford Festival, this exciting program offers hands-on exploration into the many layers of theatrical production. Each week features a new theme with creative stations where participants can create, collaborate and discover the world behind the curtain. 

Activities include props, set design, costumes, wigs & makeup, music and movement, acting, lighting special effects and audio special effects. Plus, some weeks will feature activities inspired by the Stratford Festival’s The Hobbit production, bringing scenes and characters to life through themed activities inspired by the Stratford Festival's production. No experience needed -- just imagination.

2. July 16: "I am looking for someone to share in an adventure"
3. July 23: "May the hair on your toes never fall out!"
4. July 30: “The greatest adventure is having friends to share it with.”
5. Aug 6: “A box without hinges, key, or lid, Yet golden treasure inside is hid.”
6. Aug 13: "May you ever appear where you are most needed and least expected!”
7. Aug 20: “So comes snow after fire, and even dragons have their endings.”
