Ye Olde Courthouse Players Presents…
Two-Bite Bard – Shakespeare…Kid Sized!
The Kamloops Arts Council has brought back its’ hugely successful Children’s Theatre Program. Katrina Mayne returns as director joined by Simon Walter, Randi Edmundson and Dan Erickson as actors. This year the students have been given the challenge of producing Shakespeare themed children’s plays; for their first production they have chosen to present an adaptation of The Tempest. No worries, although the play is Shakespearean in nature, it has been “kid-sized”! What a wonderful way to introduce your children (maybe even yourself) to Shakespeare. Bring the entire family to Riverside Park, Wednesday to Saturday, from July 2nd to August 15th. The production runs at 1pm and 3pm.
*Please note, there will be no 3pm performance on Thursdays as the Ye Olde Courthouse Players will be busy hosting Theatre Workshops at the Bizarre Bazaar at the Old Courthouse Cultural Centre from 4PM to 6PM. Come and meet the actors and join them in theatre games and theatre-oriented crafts.
