Dear parents of Middle School students,
Your child’s class is going on a field trip! This is an excellent chance to further your child’s learning outside of the classroom.
The middle school students will attend the educational play “Show Way- The Musical” at the Charleston Gaillard Center on April 16 at 1 p.m. From website: Created by Kennedy Center Theater for Young Audiences on Tour, Washington, DC. Follow the stitches of a family’s lineage. Soonie’s great-grandma was just seven years old when she was sold to a big plantation without her ma and pa, with only some fabric and needles to call her own. She began to stitch a Show Way, a quilt with secret meanings to show enslaved people the way to freedom. As each generation passes, the Show Way shines a light on the past and paves a road to the future, stitching together possibility and promise. Kennedy Center Education Artist-in-Residence Jacqueline Woodson’s award-winning story of history, love, and resilience becomes a world premiere stage adaptation directed by Schele Williams with new music by Tyrone L. Robinson. This moving, lyrical account pays tribute to women in Woodson’s own family whose strength and knowledge illuminate their daughters’ lives over seven generations.
Students should dress to go to a play.
Young men: khakis and collared button shirt
Young ladies: dress or skirt/blouse.
Students do not need to bring anything with them.
