Beginning in December 1938, ten thousand Jewish children fled Nazi rule from Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Austria. Without their parents, they boarded the Kindertransport—afraid and uncertain about what the future held for them and the families they were forced to leave behind. Author Anne L. Fox was one of these courageous children, and ArtsPower brings her journey to the stage in a gripping and poignant drama that is a tribute to the strength of the human spirit, and one girl’s struggle to find hope and meaning in a time of despair. Relates to World War II, prejudice, friendship, autobiography, and theater. VT Stan.: 4.4, 5.8, 6.12. Sponsored by Ducky Donath


“The performance and workshop left lasting impressions and became seeds for thoughtful

Are YOU afraid of the Big, Bad Wolf? Based on the hilariously popular book by Jon Scieszka, this fantastic musical from Dallas Children’s Theater begins where the book leaves off: the trial of Alexander T. Wolf for the murder of two of the three little pigs. Al is a carnivore to the core, but is he the victim of a media frame-up? When all the witness statements are in, the audience becomes the jury and determines Al’s fate. What really happened? YOU decide! Relates to problem-solving, literature, evidence-based conclusions. VT Stan.: 2.2, 5.13, 6.2.
