Small Tales Storytelling

Small Tales Storytelling Small Tales is the name of our programming for children. Small Tales is the name of our storytelling event offerings for children.

We conduct a variety of theme-based dramatic and storytelling performances, theater and art-based workshops for young learners and teachers at schools, corporates, NGOs, and private events. We do reading, activities, discussions, games, workshops, and class sessions for young people ages 3 through 16. We hold monthly events where anyone is welcome but also organize private events for companies, gr

oups, schools, birthday parties, and families of all sizes. We have a large menu of exercises we do with kids that both entertain and educate. What's special about what we do is that we always leave young people with a deeper appreciation and understanding of stories. We also pride ourselves on instilling positive values in everything that we do, resonating beyond just the story reading and discussions that we make possible. Storytelling is in our collective DNA and so it's never too early to understand how stories work and how we can bring out the innate storyteller inside each of us.

Our 2025 Wrapped is taking a little longer than we imagined, so before the clock strikes 12 and we step into 2026, here’s a simple, heartfelt message. 💕

Wishing everyone a beautiful new year filled with stories of courage, curiosity, creativity, and the character to stand up for what’s right, even when no one is watching. ✨

Summer of 2025, wrapped ☀️✨

Looking back at our summers, it was all about stories, stages, and sparks of imagination.
Over 3 months of intensive work, our summer programs came alive across four fantastic venues in Mumbai, creating spaces for children to explore creativity, imagination, innovation, and communication—every single day.

From workshops to performances, rehearsals to revelations, it was a season of growth, collaboration, and joyful learning.

A special shoutout to the amazing collaborators that made it all possible:

🌟 11 incredible years at ASB with

🎭 6 years at NCPA

🏙️ 2 wonderful years at Lodha

🌱 And our very first year at Ascend International School

Grateful for the trust, the partnerships, and the many young voices that filled these spaces with stories last summer.
Onwards to more imagination, more courage, and many more summers to come 💛

2025 WRAPPED!!
Sharing our journey in the last one year over the next few days 🎈

✨ The magic lies within the pages of books — and at Small Tales Academy, we help those pages leap off the paper and onto the stage.

🌍 Global Classical Showcase at LAIS
Three iconic authors. Three distinct styles. One unforgettable annual showcase celebrating stories from around the world.

🌈 Whimsical World of Dr. Seuss
Satire met slapstick as Seuss’s quirky universe burst to life through bold physicality, playful comedy, and larger-than-life characters — led by our Junior School.

🕵️ Mystifying Mysteries of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Classic crime with a contemporary twist — High School performers reimagined Sherlock through razor-sharp rap, live beatboxing, and striking shadow play.

🌾 Poignant Portraits of Munshi Premchand
Raw, rooted, and resonant — Middle School students brought Premchand’s stories alive through vibrant nautanki storytelling infused with soul-stirring qawwali.

📚✨ From page to stage, this is storytelling as it’s meant to be.

✨ MAKING LEARNING VISIBLE ✨

We closed the term not with a performance, but with a sharing of journeys.

With just a container and a flow, our Young Thespians took the lead — reflecting, articulating, and owning their learning from the past six months.

No scripts. No prompts.
Just 'authentic voices', courage, and confidence built from being seen, heard, and accepted.

And then came the surprise —
parents stepped into the learning space to experience the magic of the dramatic arts themselves!

Laughter. Giggles.
And a gentle reminder that confidence grows from within, when one feels safe and real.

This is what learning looks like at Small Tales Academy, and we take immense pride in it 💞

World Mental Health Day 💚

At Small Tales Academy, we’ve learned that drama is not just about performing a part — it’s about becoming more whole. About finding rhythm in our emotions, courage in our stories, and calm in our breath.

As I journey through my Expressive Arts Therapy programme at St. Xavier’s this year, I’m discovering diverse POVs of what expression could mean in learning spaces, and even more deeply how movement, music, voice, and imagination can open gentle doors to healing.

This World Mental Health Day, we honour the quiet, unseen work of expressive arts — where every story shared, every feeling explored, becomes a step toward inner balance and connection. 🌿✨

✨ Where stories heal, and hearts grow.

✨ We’re thrilled to share that our work has been featured in Mid-Day! ✨

Thank you for recognising the journey we’ve been on — building inclusive and accessible practices in education through the arts. 💛

It takes years of steady, dedicated practice (and collaborators who believe in the work as deeply as we do) to see the light of day. 🌱

This also takes me back to an article on storytelling from over 12 years ago, when I was just starting my journey as a storyteller — featured alongside , whose work I’ve admired ever since I was a school girl! 🌸

And today, to find our work featured right next to , whose vision has made arts and literature festivals a global phenomenon, is truly humbling and inspiring.

🌿✨ A New Story Takes the Stage ✨🌿

At Small Tales Academy, every school production is more than a performance — it’s a space where children learn, imagine, and discover their voices and diversity in our culture through the arts. This season, we are delighted to begin a new journey in collaboration with the Akshara Foundation of Arts and Learning (AFAL), a Mumbai-based not-for-profit that has been championing the integration of arts into education since 2007.

Together, we share the dream of creating spaces where children grow without fear or prejudice, where the arts are not just an activity but an essential part of life, for all. 🎭💫

And this time, these young performers are stepping into the enchanting world of the Sundarbans 🌊🐅 — a land of mangroves, myths, and mysteries. With music, movement, and storytelling, they will bring alive the spirit of this magical forest on stage.

Stay tuned as we share behind-the-scenes glimpses of this exciting adventure — a journey of creativity, community, and courage! ✨

🌿✨ Ode to Our Teachers ✨🌿

Not chalk and talk, but drums and dance,
You give shy voices a fearless chance.
With cardboard crowns and fabric scraps,
You build whole kingdoms on tiny laps. 👑

You don’t measure by marks or speed,
But by wonder, courage, kindness, need.
You make magic daily (with very few tools!)
Reminding us: simplicity and mindfulness beats glittery schools. 🌈

So here’s our cheer—hip hip hooray!
For the dream-makers of Small Tales Academy today. 🥁📖
