The Salem (New Hampshire) Observer writes this morning that Pelham, New Hampshire, will be the first and only stop on a special circus tour established to teach kids confidence through performing.
About 40 third through fifth-grade students will present two free shows this weekend to show what they’ve learned. “It’s fun and interesting,” said Ben Harris, 10, who will don a yellow clown suit and make balloon sculptures for the audience. “I think people will like all the acts that we do.”
One of the organizers and teacher said the students benefit from their involvement in the club in many ways. They make friends with other kids they may not have otherwise met, it gives them a creative outlet, and it teaches them the importance of teamwork. “They get some discipline out of it. They?ve had to really dedicate themselves to the process.”
Taylor Williams, 10, learned a magic trick at home with her father. This weekend she will share it with the audience when she dons a magician?s cape and hat.
We know of no better way to develop self-confidence and public speaking ability than the performing arts.
Break a leg, fellow performers!
