The Pied
Piper is the Village Playhouse's 2003 traveling children's production. This
show travels to various locations in the metropolitan area. All
the shows listed below are open to the public with tickets available at
the door. (At the Lakefront Festival of the Arts the performance
is free with admission to the grounds)
This play is really about children caught between the penny-pinching
elders and the strange genius in the pied costume who played such
enchanting music. It's also the story of Peter, a lame boy who couldn't
keep up with the other children and so was left behind, and Alsa, the
pretty girl who did Peter's running. Of course, the parents missed their
children and wanted them back�that much was known. But what about the
children? Did they find another Oz�a Never-Never Land where children
don't age�a Looking Glass world�or was their journey a different one? |
