KEY STAGE 2. HISTORICAL COSTUMED WORKSHOPS
Early Civilisations
Ancient Greece
A light hearted look at the Greek civilisation and Greek theatre using masks, costume, music, dance and dramatic interpretation as an insight into life in Ancient Greece. Four children will be chosen to take the lead roles of Perseus, King Polydectes, the Goddess Athena and Medusa. Other children will be required to make up the Greek chorus and musicians for a retelling of the legend of Medusa. Opportunities are provided for children to try on masks and costumes and take part in a song and dance of the period.
