School Shows

Education through entertainment

Customized puppet shows and interactive dramatized narrations of stories

Puppets and enacted stories provide an essential link between learning and play, making them wonderful teaching tools in the classroom. Our school productions appeal to children with visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. They provide opportunities for role-play, engage the students’ imagination in discovering collaborative solutions, and are a platform for the creative expression of ideas.

Puppets are also a vital tool in connecting with children with special educational needs. They can motivate and support children with challenges in communication, help to develop social and motor skills, and provide a dynamic dimension when interacting with differently-abled children.

We can customize a puppet show or story based on your educational requirement or you can select a show from our colourful list of Sri Lankan classics –brought to life through puppets, dialogue, music and movement.

Mahadanamuththa and his Modern Golayas

The beloved folk character of the omniscient old man and his band of merry followers is a guaranteed crowd pleaser, particularly in the classroom. Our scripts promote a broader perspective utilizing humour and action, and energize the audience with plenty of room for improvisation.

And really who better to teach children social skills than a puppet? Mahadanamuththa is the most effective teacher and his gaggle of modern golayas will leave your students in stitches as they come in all shapes, sizes, ethnicities and attitudes. This motley crew can guide children through wild adventures, encourage them to utilize their imaginations and common sense to make the most efficient choices, and take ownership of the consequences to reinforce the importance of individual accountability for communal harmony. So take it up a notch and energize your lesson plan by tapping into the power of the performing arts and the magic of play today!
