The Fairytale Players
Golden Thread's touring children's ensemble

Over the past three years we have developed programming for youth in the community. In 2006, we launched The Fairytale Players as part of our Children’s Traditional Theatre Program, created by an ensemble of actors who work together in a workshop setting to create and tour fairy tales from around the Middle East. This project is based on ancient tales and utilizing traditional performance elements, music, and dance from the region.
