Lewiston Civic Theatre’s Traveling Theatre Troupe is On The Road Again!   The Lewiston Civic Theatre is currently on the move!   The Traveling Theatre Troupe has been performing for Clarkston elementary students in their schools, in addition to some Lewiston and Juliaetta students. The Troupe does a short play for the whole school and then an active workshop based on the play with two or three of the school’s classes. The play and workshop are all written with a focus on Washington and Idaho state standards in Theatre, not to mention being fun and entertaining! Normally it is difficult for schools, especially elementary schools, to teach theatre to their students. Well, the Lewiston Civic Theatre makes it almost painless: the play and lessons covering most of their state standards come directly to the schools!   This year, the Troupe’s play is based on the Hans Christian Anderson story:  The Snow Queen. Only we have changed it a little to The Techno Queen (script by Terrill Settles and Mary Minton). Instead of the boy being frozen by the evil Snow Queen, our evil Techno Queen tempts the boy away from his book reading with video games. If he isn’t rescued in time by our heroine, Gerda, he will become a character in one of the Techno Queen’s video games. Does Gerda make it in time? You’ll have to ask one of the elementary students to find out!   All the students at each school are given a bookmark to encourage their reading - with quotes from the characters in the play and information about the Lewiston Civic Theatre, including Jacqulyn Haight’s Summer Children’s Studio Workshop.   Special acknowledgements and thanks are due to Danita Cochrane for specialty costumes, Michelle Adamson-Brandt for set and bookmark graphic design, and Terry Settles-Technical Director. Terry also bought a trailer and built special carts to haul all the set and equipment for the Traveling Troupe.   This project is partially funded by a grant from Inland Northwest Community Foundation- Florence Wasmer Fund for Arts and Culture.
