ArtReach's
moving play tells of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Life, growing up in a
little house on the prairie! Just right for young audiences!
Commissioned
and originally produced by the professional Repertory Theatre of St.
Louis: Steven Woolf, Artistic Director
Mark
D. Bernstein, Managing Director
Producers, this play for young audiences was professionally developed
for St. Louis Rep, written for a small cast, low tech, professional
school tour.
"This script blends contemporary history with her story. The
play starts during the Civil War, with the division of the North and
South, while also setting the scene of a little house in Wisconsin
and a girl named Laura. It gives a lot of understanding to the
western migration."
Dale
Schrag, Director, Family Children's Theatre
There
are many suggestions for creative staging, good opportunities
to showcase your best talents. Best of all, the play really holds a
young audience's attention.
