Rob Simon is a veteran educator, trainer, consultant and speaker/performer working with school systems and various agencies coast to coast. Through his own POSITIVE RHYTHM PRODUCTIONS, he produces and directs topical workshop, classroom, assembly, keynote, theater-related, storytelling, and other creative presentations for diverse audiences, using various training models, persuasive speech, original songs, characterizations, essays, poetry, and more. Currently, he is, also, working on a special project as a consultant for Restorative Practices (a.k.a. Restorative Justice in Education) for the Wichita Public Schools in Wichita, Kansas and is a co-founder of the Center for Restorative Communities also based in Wichita and working with schools, families, congregations and businesses everywhere.Rob holds a Bachelor of Science in Social Studies from Texas College in Tyler, Texas an Master of Arts in Communication from Wichita State University, and certification or experience in various training models; but it is his work as an actor, writer, facilitator, producer and director of creative stage shows that fueled his passion to write Imitation of Life. Rob is passionate about the power of using the arts intentionally and creatively to guide, inspire and teach - whether with professionals or more excitingly, using novice actors with little experience on stage. What makes it work well, he says is to reduce theater vehicles to bite sized pieces. Even very young performers can be successful if you simplify the lessons they learn and teach through creating and performing for the stage.For more information, contact Rob: info@positiverhythm.org See less
