TRAVELING
SHOW TONIGHT
In the mid-19th century Yankee settlers and
European immigrants poured into the Upper Great Lakes region. Volumes of
Shakespeare, hardangar fiddles and memories of music & entertainments
elsewhere came with them. In new towns with aspirations, talk soon began of
building a hall. Something grand, an opera house to see and hear the
traveling companies, soloists & lecturers of the day. Traveling Show
Tonight follows national touring artists onto the stages of the Upper
Great lakes. In the process, we trace the development of American popular music
and instruments like the banjo & the mandolin from 1843 to 1905. A 90 minute
performance of period music and theater with a cast of four. |
TOADS
AND FROGS
Young
toads question their fat brown, bumpy appearance in comparison to the sleek fast
frogs that live nearby. An older toad explains how each characteristic helps
them to survive with singing visits from relatives. Toads and Frogs
is an engaging interactive 35 minute performance for younger children that
coordinates with K-3 science curriculum. It encourages K-3 children to be
curious about how and why animals are the same or different. It also
demonstrates how animals are affected by ecological changes. Toads and
Frogs focuses on being respectful to others and the Earth.
