Synopsis

THE STORY: Drawing on the lively and fanciful American tales of Stephen Vincent Benét, the substance of the program ranges from the Colonial years and the Revolutionary War to the opening of the West and the burgeoning of the American heartland.

Using creative theatre concepts to bring the stories alive on stage, with short poems and simple musical interpolations to enhance and heighten the flow of action, it not only captures the vitality and humor of Benét's imaginative creations, but also makes the lesson of their wit and wisdom powerfully relevant to our own troubled times.
