Theatre isn't just for the 1940's! This week The Missoula Children's Theatre came into town to produce a wonderful show with students at Hendry Park Elementary School. Auditions came early in the week and rehearsals were in the evenings. Within a week, a delightful show was produced, The Little Mermaid. This show was written by Jim Caron. Two professional actors brought their work into town in a traveling trailer full of set designs, music scores, costumes and the magical directors wand! The show entertained many at the Steuben County Community Theatre and our own Gerry Farrell donating his time with lights and sound.
I felt the excitement must have been a little like when the circus came to town and invaded everyone's lives. Does anyone out there have any information about the circus coming to Steuben County?
Congratulations to the 58 children (and their parents) who participated in this event. Who knows? One day they might be on the Spoken Word stage?

It sounds like Prof Hill !
ReplyDeleteYour own Gerry Farrell could be a generous one donating his time now with sound and lights (not to mention his own talents in singing and acting on stage ) How humbling it be to change a letter of his real name to be your own Gerry Farrell, bravo to all the kids and to the theater people there, no matter how they spell their names !
