THE INVISIBLE GIRL
Recommended for Grades 3 - 7
Friday, October 12, 2007
10:30 A.M.
Running Time 1 Hour
Ali isn’t really invisible…In fact she used to be part of the most popular group in Grade 5. Then she made a BIG mistake. Now all her best friends ignore her. But Ali realizes she’s not the only one who feels this way. The Invisible Girl is a smart and funny look at our culture’s preoccupation with fashion, beauty and popularity. It’s about being yourself and standing up for what’s right, even if sometimes it’s easier to be invisible. Brought to us by Green Thumb Theatre of Canada who challenges students to re-examine their beliefs and prejudices and to define their feelings and aspirations.

IF YOU GIVE A PIG A PARTY
Recommended for Grades PreK - 3
Wednesday, October 24, 2007
10:30 A.M.
Running Time 1 Hour
Join the biggest party of the year! If you give a pig a party, she’s going to want some balloons … and ice cream …and a pillow fight … and then she’ll want to clean up … and what better setting for another party than a nice, clean room? You get the picture. In Laura Numeroff’s delightful circular stories one thing leads to another until somehow you wind up back at the beginning. But what this little piggy learns amidst all the flurry and excitement of putting together a party is this: you can’t have a party without friends … and having friends is the perfect reason to have a party! Party with the Dallas Children’s Theatre who will enchant a young audience into going to the theater again and again.
