Magic Carpet Theatre 2006-2007 Season

I Dream of... Twelfth Night

A quirky teenage girl falls asleep while talking on the phone and trying to write a report on William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. Once her eyes close, she is cast into a dream world where she becomes the main character in the classic Elizabethan comedy. The only problem is... she doesn't know any of the lines! This new play combines modern language with excerpts from the original play and serves as a wonderful introduction to Shakespearean literature. It is recommended for grades 5-8.

Duck!

By: Robert Dennick Joki

The classic tale of the ugly duckling comes to life in this new Magic Carpet Theater production. When the awkward little duck leaves home to find his place in the world, he comes across the 4th Little Pig and BIG red Riding Hood (Little Red Riding Hood's older, less popular brother.) The group, along with the help of the audience, discover that there are more important aspect of life than "fitting in." This audience interactive play is recommended for grades K-6.
