These one-hour, live performances combine visual, audio and kinesthetic learning modes to create educational theatre experiences. (Shhh. Don't tell the kids, but the arts teach across the curricula and meet all the standards and benchmarks.) Students simply enjoy entertaining performances presented at Popejoy Hall.

I am really interested in getting signed up for this series, however when I go into their web page the only thing that comes up it for the 2007-2008 year and those are almost all sold out. How did you find out about the 2008-09 school year?
Robin, I believe sign ups usually start in August for the upcoming school year, so you might just want to keep checking back on their web site. Someone on the forum usually alerts people when the sign-ups start, because they are so popular with all of us homeschoolers.
True I just got this notice in an e-mail w/out a link to sign-up or anything so maybe they're just waiting 'til August as you've mentioned . . . I feel the same way - so excited to get the tix!
They just released the dates and times for the shows. We still have to wait until Friday to buy the tickets, but at least we can plan which shows we want to attend!
OK, it is Fri. and the list is available to order. Do we have to order together? I am not sure what they mean by teachers must order individually and then talk about coming in as a group.
