Library,
Historical Societies
and Seniors Groups |
| |
Since we began performing historical shows for children,
a lot of people have told us that they wish learning
about great historical figures could have been this
much fun when they were in school. They enjoy our presentations,
but they’re for kids, right?
Libraries, historical societies, and senior's groups
were left wondering: what about the adults?! Learning
isn’t just for children, and everyone likes to
have fun. So how could we bring history to life for
the “kids at heart”? |
