The 3rd grade students of Highland Renaissance Academy performed their plays on 3/21/2008. Most of them had never been on a stage before. They were terrific. Thanks for Sarah Lewis for backstage assistance as my Stage manager. Pam Lewis, from the Charlotte Trolley and I (Della Freedman of About Town Tours), did a residency at the school to teach the students how to write plays based on their research of many of the Changemakers in Charlotte. I took their scripts, and using their words, created two plays "A Night In The Museum" and "The Evil Wizard."
Mrs. Freedman,
Thanks for your help and support. The play was a
success and the students enjoyed themselves. Again thanks.
