Once Upon a Forest Greetings, Teacher!
Soon you and your students will take a journey into the woods with an unexpected array of fairy tale characters in Once Upon A Forest. This very contemporary retelling of some especially memorable - and other surprising - Grimm Tales is an exceptional experience in imagination.

We want your class' attendance at this production to be a remarkable experience for everyone. As part of that, we have developed this Teacher's Study Guide, designed to be copied and used to prepare for the play by teachers in their classrooms. We want this Guide to be EASY TO USE so that...
...you can fully enjoy the performance.
...you can think ahead about the themes of the play.
...you can tap into the excitement generated by the experience to enhance many areas of your curriculum.

Please Note: The age range of students using this Study Guide is very broad, so some things will apply more to your specific class than others. Use what you need. Browse around, get ideas of your own, and most of all ENJOY. And thank you for making the arts a priority in your school!
