Oskar and the Last Straw!
By Prince Gomolvilas
Currently touring schools all over the Bay Area
Oskar faces an overwhelming amount of schoolwork, extracurricular activities, social events, and pressure from all around him. As his backpack gets fuller and voices from the outside world get louder, Oskar can't help but feel like he can't handle it--any of it! What does a kid have to do to deal with stress, to take back control, to be resiliant? This high-energy show encourages students to embrace their personal power and to be optimistic about their futures.
Your students will walk away from this assembly with tools to build confidence and the developmental assets that create healthy choices.
This assembly was comissioned by TheatreWorks and Palo Alto Unified School District, with input from Project Cornerstone, Steps to Success, and Project Safety Net.
Ideal for grades K-5.
