Abstract

Some studies show Millennials are tech-savvy but lack of soft skills needed in the working world. Creativity is one of the soft skills needed and indeed, is one of the pillars in Trilling and Fadel’s 21st C Skills that students need to master. Overhead Projectplay (OP), a shadow puppet play using overhead projectors done in Theatrical Design class, English for Creative Industry Program at Petra Christian University, can be a good theater education project to foster students’ creativity. The process to create OP is proven to nurture students’ ability to think creatively, work creatively with others and implement innovations, as they used the classic technology and became the playwright, director, and actor.
