Children's Theater Association
presents our 2009-2010 Touring Season
NEW THIS YEAR: Are You Ready?!
A brand new show from CTA for this season. Filled with all the trials and tribulations that students worry, wonder and just plain think about as they prepare to take a big test. We help them learn to stay calm, confident and completely focused as they study and then take the test. We believe it will help. We know it will be fun. Suggested for grades 1 - 6 and available in time for the MSA from January 19 through March 19. Running time: 45 minutes. Cost: $595 for a single performance and $695 for back to back performances.
Ananse, Brer Rabbit and the Leprecaun
CTA’s own hilarious and inventive collection of tales from African, Native American and European sources. Here is true cultural diversity. Each of these cultures have their own tricksters. We tell the African story of “Ananse and the Rubberman,” the Irish story of “The Leprecaun and the Red Ribbons” and the Indian tale of “Brother Coyote and Brother Rabbit.” Then we show how several cultures contributed to create such classic stories as “Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby.” It is an ideal show for grades three to five, but we have performed it to enthusiastic responses from grades one through eight. Available from January 19, 2010 through June 11, 2010. Running time: 50 minutes. Cost: $595 for a single performance and $695 for back to back performances. Save $100 if you book it to perform before March 1, 2010.
Maryland, My Maryland
For years we have performed shows about Maryland history. We have told the stories of the Calverts, the burning of the Peggy Stewart and the creation of our national anthem by Francis Scott Key. Best of all, we told the dramatic story of Harriet Tubman’s daring escapes. Now, it is time to update the show. We have added in the story of Frederick Douglass and we have focused the entire play on Maryland’s famous “Middle Temperament.” It is still a musical with participation by the audience and lots of fun for all. We recommend it for Grades One through Eight. Running time: 50 minutes. Available from April 19, 2010 through June 11, 2010. Cost: $595 for a single performance and $695 for back to back performances.
THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE
The classic tale of sacrifice and adventure by C.S. Lewis. This delightful version has been an audience favorite since we first performed it 1992. It is a great teaching tool about literature and about the meaning of living for others. We have performed this play for children in Kindergarten through 9th grade. We recommend it for grades 1-5. Running time: 45 minutes. Available from October 26 through June 11. Cost: $595 for a single performance and $695 for back to back performances. Save $200 if you book it to perform before Christmas.
