The Elves Are Still Busy
Since October, the St. Margaret’s Players of St. Margaret’s
School in Buzzards Bay have been working on an original version of the the
beloved folk tale, The Elves and the Shoemaker. Due to overscheduling before
Christmas, the production date has been moved to the upcoming weekend of
January 10 &11, 2015. Rehearsals are continuing at the school during
vacation, with four elves and all characters working hard to perfect their
performance.
Janice Rodgers of Buzzards Play Productions and Lee Drescher
of the Treasure Time Story Book Theatre are working with sixteen children who
range in age from eight to twelve. They will perform a children’s musical which will last about an hour, including
the intermission. With the encouragement of Rodgers, this is Drescher’s first
attempt to write a children’s show of longer duration than the short skits which she usually creates in
conjunction with her live story hour.
The first performance will take place at St, Margaret’s
School on Saturday January 10 at 2PM, and the second performance will be at
Buzzards Play Productions In Wareham, on the Cranberry Highway on Sunday
January 11 at 2PM. The play is suitable for children ages three and up, and all
are invited to attend. Admission is $5.00.
