Theater Program for Kids at Branigan Library

Staff Report / LasCruceslocal.org

The Thomas Branigan Memorial Library in Las Cruces, NM, is hosting a Theater program for children ages 8 to 14 and their caregivers. The program is scheduled to take place every Friday afternoon from 4:00 to 5:00 PM.

Participants will engage in Reader's Theater, reading short plays aloud in a fun and relaxed environment. The program emphasizes using voices and facial expressions rather than costumes or props. It aims to bring characters to life while enhancing reading comprehension, fluency, and confidence.

No prior theater experience is necessary, and the program is open to all skill levels, as long as participants possess basic reading skills and an interest in storytelling. The library encourages children and their caregivers to join for an exciting and creative experience.
