Novel Ideas is an educational theater troupe that uses improvisation to educate, excite and inspire creative writing. With lots of audience participation, props and costumes, Novel Ideas’ players dramatize children’s thoughts, ideas and even original writings.

Creative thinking and imagination are fostered as children construct their own piece of literature. Then, students will see their creations brought to life with comedy, drama, audience participation and other theatrical elements

Novel Ideas’ “Premier Program” introduces children to the elements and construction of a story. Through improvisational exercises, audience members contribute to the production of an original – and often – hilarious presentation.

Novel Ideas’ “Encore Program” involves the actor’s return to perform four to five of the stories written by students. Stories are performed in such styles as mystery, opera, and silent film. The result is always an exciting and educational performance for all. Shows can be performed as a two-part program or one-time event.

“Novel Ideas was exceptional! Thank you!"

“The students truly enjoyed seeing their stories ‘come to life.’ It’s a great motivation for the students to write stories knowing their story may be performed. The actors were very professional, highly energetic and just what we needed.”

Sue Kuligoski, Assistant Principal
Meadow Ridge School
