Kindergarten and 2nd grade Horace Mann students rode yellow school buses to Playhouse Square this week to see a production of Moon Mouse: A Space Odyssey. The Story:
Marvin the mouse wants to be popular. Constantly bullied and picked on by the “cool” rats, he is labeled as a loser and a geek. To get away from the continuous badgering, he retreats into his science books and a world of fantasy. He longs to have adventures, to be the hero. Join Marvin on the space adventure of a lifetime: a trip to the surface of the moon on his homemade rocket where he meets a strange cast of misfit creatures, learns of infinite peril and awesome beauty. Will Marvin make his dreams come true and find the glory and acceptance he craves?
According to all the informal interviews I conducted, everyone enjoyed the play AND the bus ride!
Kindergarten students joined the fun again--this time with our preschool friends--in celebrating the birthday of author Dr. Seuss. You can just imagine the fun things the children and their teachers made, watched, wore, and read about this week!
