Schooltime Theater Performance
Buffalo Soldier
February 9, 2010
Geared Toward Grades 3rd thru 9th
At the beginning of the Civil War, the North expected the conflict to end quickly and
was not prepared for the high death toll that the long war brought about. The government
soon turned to the African-Americans and asked them to join the fight. More
than 150,000 men enlisted in all-black regiments in the Union Army. While a few of these
men achieved officers’ rank during the Civil War they were never allowed to command
troops as the nation’s leaders believed they lacked the needed skills and experience. By
war’s end, these skillful soldiers had taken part in over 400 battles and had helped the
North preserve the Union.
Performed in February it's the perfect compliment to African American Heritage Month studies.

Schooltime Theater Performance
Patchwork -
The Little House Life of Laura Ingalls Wilder
April 22, 2010
Geared Toward Grades Kindergarten thru 5th
In Theatre IV’s pioneer adventure, Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family relive the
hardships and triumphs of their adventures on America’s frontier as recorded in
the patterns of their patchwork quilts.
“The Rocky Road to Kansas” recalls their journey west to stake a land claim under
the Homestead Act of 1862. Their hope for a better life and sense of adventure
sustain them on their long and dangerous trip, whether slipping and sliding in
their covered wagon across the frozen Mississippi or almost overturning in the
turbulent waters of a roaring creek.
“The Log Cabin” pattern reminds them of how Ma and Pa, with the help of Mr.
Edwards, built their log cabin by hand, their own “Little House on the Prairie.”
