Northwestern Children's Theatre Tour
Imagination Express: The Northwestern Tour!!!
We are home to one of the most cool touring shows anywhere (OK, so maybe
we're biased here since both of the homepage maintainers are currently in,
or have been in the touring show).
This year, NU proudly presents the world premier production of
Aurand Harris' latest masterpiece, The Orphan Train.
The show tells the stories of numerous orphans shipped from the streets of
New York and other Eastern cities, toward the mid-west where they were
adopted by people. This is based on real life testimonies given by persons
on the orphan train.
Our production made it's premier the weekend of March 1, 1996 and was quite successful.
In the spring, the show tours annually to area elementary, middle, and high
schools (depending on the nature of that year's particular show).
Soon, we will have booking information on our touring show for the coming
years. (very soon, I
promise!)

Northwestern touring show production for the Spring of 1995.
