The Epic of Gilgamesh is the greatest story to have survived from ancient Iraq. The first half of this session for 5-11 year olds will involve creating the masks of the characters from Gilgamesh. Then those that want to can play their chosen characters in a short performance of the Epic. Everybody else can sit back and enjoy watching the play unfold.
