Cathy Tobia Naylor

Cathy Naylor is the brainchild behind this fantastic program. The skeleton concept of storyline and music are provided using materials from the Fingerprint Productions Drama and Language Arts program conceived and developed by Cathy Naylor has utilized this program to unroll strong youth drama teams everywhere she has taught.

    The crux of the program is the use of improvisational story and script development that suit the personalities and talents of the students involved in the production springing forth from 3 or 4 primary musical compositions.

    The method of course differs substantially from the standard drama production method of buying a pre-written script and musical segments and fitting the available performers into the storyline..

    Instead, students develop their character personalities, habits, idiosyncrasies and most of all, lines and the way in which those lines are delivered giving them far more substantial ownership over the final product.
