Artist: Barbara Russell
Focusing on teachers' lesson plans, Barbara Russell employs dramatic techniques to enrich classroom instruction. Her Drama Techniques workshops may include creating a play based upon a theme from the curriculum, describing and distinguishing elements that make something dramatic (i.e., techniques of narration, improvisation and prop endowment), or simply activating imaginations through theatre exercises which then lead to exploring curricular topics. Barbara is a former elementary school teacher who combines 35 years of professional theatrical experience with a knowledge of how children learn. She was a long-time comedic partner of the late Don Brockett (Brockett and Barbara), and performs regularly on Pittsburgh stages.
