Bremen Town Musicians
Bremen Town Musicians
Ages Kindergarten to 3
The Bremen Town Musicians is a shadow puppet show that demonstrates the lessons taught in the “Light and Sound: Puppet-Theater Engineers” 1st-grade science unit. During the course of the performance, different materials, light sources, and noise-making props will be used to show different effects that can be achieved. The story is about how different shapes and sounds can be interpreted differently. It is a direct application of the science lessons being taught. The performance will include a post-show discussion that will explain how students can re-create the different effects used in the performance.
Big Tree and Little Salmon
Big Tree and Little salmon
Grades 2-5
Thistle Theatre’s new show. Big Tree and Little Salmon is about the ecology of salmon runs in Washington and the historical and cultural relationship with the Suquamish people. The story follows the journey of salmon from Wildcat and LostCreek to the ocean and back again. This program is made possible in part by a grant from the Suquamish Tribe and Suquamish Foundation. This program is created in collaboration with and with support from Keta Legacy Foundation.
