The Return of The Elves and The Shoemaker

  If anyone out there has the urge to see me dress in drag then this show is for you! I play the Shoemaker's Wife. Here's the info:   Historic Farmland USA in partnership with The Panto Project will present The Elves and The Shoemaker, A Children’s Panto Theatre on December 14 & 21, 2013 at 1:00pm. The performances will be at The Farmland Center, 100 N. Main Street in Downtown Farmland. Tickets are $5 per person. Reservations are recommended and payment can be made at the door. More information is available by calling 765-468-7631 or e-mailing darrinfarmland@aol.com.   The Elves and The Shoemaker is a one-hour children’s play based on the story by the Brothers Grimm. Professional and local actors team up with shadow puppets to tell the story of the kind Shoemaker and his Wife whose difficult life is made easier by some mysterious helpers who make shoes in the night. True to the panto style, there is a Good Fairy who keeps the audience informed and involved, a bad guy who is trying to interfere with the hero’s happiness, and a comedy duo who keep everyone’s spirits light. Of course, by Christmas Day, good triumphs over evil (with help from the audience and a little magic) and everyone learns a lesson in charity.   The play is written by Julie Lyn Barber, a playwright living in Parker City.   For ticket and information call 765-468-7631, visit www.farmlandindiana.org or e-mail darrinfarmland@aol.com.
