This spring, join Purple Carrots Drama Studio for Petal to the Metal, a dynamic workshop inspired by the vibrant energy and renewal of the season! Designed for neurodiverse individuals (ages 9-15 and 16+), this program invites participants to dive into stories of blooming friendships, adventurous garden creatures, and the unstoppable growth of creativity.
Through character creation, improvisation, and interactive drama games, participants will build confidence, social skills, and self-expression in a supportive and inclusive environment. With spring-themed props, sensory-rich activities, and plenty of imaginative twists, our Carrots will craft their own tales of springtime wonder, culminating in a lively showcase for family and friends.
Let your creativity flourish this spring at Purple Carrots Drama Studio’s Petal to the Metal – where every participant’s unique ideas and energy help the season come to life!
