Set in the Revolutionary War America,
two lost soldiers stumble upon the "perfect" village while searching
for food and shelter. Unfortunately, the villagers are not so willing to
share with these weary men until the soldiers begin to make their
favorite meal - Stone Soup.
This
classic fable, told with mirth and music, makes us realize that
anything is possible if we all work together. To further the message of
community, the audience is asked to bring canned goods to place in our
soup pot which will be given to local soup kitchens. Recommended for
ages 3 to 103!
In
addition to the one hour musical, the audience receives a special treat
- interactive arts workshops prior to the performance. Here the
audience learns about the original book and how we turned it into a
musical. We discuss the themes of the show and how the arts bring
literature to life. Then the kids and their families make a special art
project and take it home as a souvenir. Now when they watch the show,
they are familiar with the art forms and themes represented in the
production.
The whole program (pre-show workshop and actual show) is approximately 2 hours long.
