After closing a successful run of The Grapes of Wrath, Festival Theatre is celebrating the collaboration with ArtReach St. Croix, who helped bring John Stienbeck’s classic novel to the valley. Next on the schedule Festival Theatre and the St. Croix Falls High School team up to produce the high school spring play. This weekend St. Croix Falls High School students will perform Cheaper by the Dozen by Christopher Sergel, continuing a 4 year partnership with Festival Theatre. This partnership enables students to work directly with professional theatre artists and get an insight into the world of professional theatre.
Cheaper by the Dozen is a heartwarming tale and is appropriate for the whole family. This show has been adapted for several Hollywood films, a musical, and a play. Cheaper by the Dozen tells the story of Mr. and Mrs. Gilbreth and their twelve children. Time and motion are key to organizing this large, chaotic family and the Gilbreths are experts in it. The show is being directed by Festival's artistic director Andrew Bradford Benson and arts education coordinator Elizabeth Albers and performed by St. Croix Falls High School students.
Show times are Friday May 6th at 7:30, Saturday May 7th at 7:30 and Sunday May 8th at 2:00 at the St. Croix Falls Elementary School Auditorium. Tickets are $3 for students and $5 for adults and can be purchased by cash or check at the door.
Those looking for more productions from Festival Theatre can look forward to the season brochure. This full-season pamphlet will feature former artistic director Jaclyn June Johnson as the cover photo and will feature two events that have not yet been released to the public. “We’re very excited to announce our full season” shared Pam Vlasnik, general manager. “Finding new venues for shows has been a challenge, and everyone will be pleased that we are bringing back popular and highly requested artists”.
