1: Upcoming Kaleidoscope Theatre Performances
In the month of April, we will be performing many
school-touring
shows at elementary and middle schools throughout
the area.
Because these are not open to the public, they will
not appear
in our newsletter or on our website. The next
performances we
have that are open to the public are:
***Goldilocks and the Three Bears
*Thursday, May 11, 2006, 10:00am
Scottish Rites Auditorium, Cranston, RI
Kaleidoscope Theatre: (401) 942-3637
* Come with us on a delightful romp through the
traditional tale
of Goldilocks, but be prepared for a new twist at
the end. Did
you ever wonder what happened after Goldilocks ran
all the way
home? Well, we answer that question in a fresh and
fun way and
teach some lessons about proper manners, too. This
is a show
you just can't 'bear' to miss!

*Wednesday, May 17, 2006, 10:00am
Stadium Theatre, Woonsocket, RI

experienced
by the bully, the bullied, and the bystanders which
offers
viable alternatives and solutions on how to deal and
heal.
***HEIDI
*Friday, May 19, 2006, 10:00am & 7:00 pm
Stadium Theatre, Woonsocket, RI
Box Office: (401) 762-4545
* A wondrous tale of the charming Swiss miss who
captures the
hearts of everyone she meets, from her stern
mountain-man of a
grandfather to the nasty governess Miss Rottenmeier.
Heidi is
guaranteed to win your heart too! This mountain of a
musical
will be fun for everyone!
