Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Presented by Community Educational
Entertainment, Inc.
Two Shows:
Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at 10:00am and 12:00 Noon
Tickets: $9.50 per person for groups of 15 or more, $14 for
individuals
Study guide available (online)
Alexander is having a bad day. A terrible day. A terrible,
horrible day. To be quite honest, it’s a terrible, horrible, no
good, very bad day. But everybody has bad days, sometimes. In this
delightful adaptation of her popular children’s book, Judith Viorst
sets Alexander’s rather trying life to music and brings to the stage
one of America’s feistiest characters. Not only does Alexander wake
up with gum in his hair and drops his sweater in the sink while the
water’s running, but he gets squished in the middle of the backseat
in the carpool, and his teacher doesn’t like his drawing of an
invisible castle. The catastrophes continue at lunchtime, when he
discovers that his mother did not pack dessert in his lunch, and his
best friend Paul decides he’s not his best friend anymore. If that’s
not bad enough, at the dentist, Alexander’s siblings don’t have any
cavities, but Alexander does. Then, at the shoe store, only boring
white sneakers are available in Alexander’s size, not the cool
colorful ones that he really wants! Just when it can’t get any
worse, there are lima beans for supper and kissing on TV. Yuck!
It
is enough to make anyone want to move to Australia. Alexander’s
struggles with life’s daily dramas will not only entertain, but
educate young audiences as they identify with Alexander and the
obstacles he encounters, encouraging them to share their feelings
and to realize that every now and then, bad days come. In the words
of Alexander’s mother, “Some days are like that.” Even in Australia.

Darwin the Dinosaur, A Glow in the Dark Adventure

Tickets: $9.50 per person for groups of 15 or more, $14 for

Grades 1 through 5

Darwin is a truly unique and innovative theater experience
where electro luminescent crayon-like creatures light up the
stage with a heart-rending tale of a dinosaur discovering the
true meaning of love. To tell the story, creators Corbin Popp
and Ian Carney have developed an array of creatures and
characters, using flexible electro luminescent wire, that are
manipulated by their hands and bodies in a black out setting.
The story begins with Professor Henslow, a famous scientist who
has magic powers. We find him in his workshop, putting his
latest creation Darwin together piece by piece. With a wave of
Henslow's wand, Darwin is brought to Life, Darwin is much more
than a pet - he is a dinosaur, a wild and primitive creature. In
the end when the red dinosaur threatens Professor Henslow's
life, Darvin comes to the rescue and when given a choice between
his life or Henslow's, Darwin chooses to give up his new heart
to save his master. Through this act of compassion, Darwin
receives a miraculous gift - the evolution of his own heart.
