Where Words Once Were
By: FINEGAN KRUKEMEYER
September 26 - October 12
In a dystopian world where language is rationed to only 1,000 approved words, Alli and her son Orhan live a normal life; going to school, owning and operating a bakery. Life is good until the words "I think Isee a city that rues words" are plastered on a wall over the bakery. The City begins a man-hunt for the perpetrator. It is then that our hero, Orhan, discovers that even a single word can change the world.
Join the S&S for this timely tale by the beloved storyteller, Finegan Kruckemeyer, author of This Girl Laughs, This Girl Cries and This Girl Does Nothing and You and Me and the Space Between.
THIS PERFORMANCE WILL BE ON THE MAINSTAGE OF THE S&S THEATRE.
For Scamps and Scoundrels 7+
