Since the building of Langroise Recital Hall on College of Idaho's campus in Caldwell, very few plays have been performed at Jewett Auditorium. I was pleased to hear, however, that not only would DreamWeaver Musical Theatre perform THE MAD ADVENTURES OF MR. TOAD on that stage, but that College of Idaho has graciously partnered with DreamWeaver for use of the auditorium over an indefinite period of time. An older stage, with plenty of seating and great acoustics, Jewett Auditorium gave a certain amount of charm to the show, even before the actors made their first entrance.

Long considered a 'songwriter's songwriter,' John Prine is a rare talent who writes the songs other songwriters would sell their souls for. Evidence of this is the long list of songwriters who have recorded gems from his extensive catalog, including Johnny Cash, Bonnie Raitt, the Everly Brothers, John Denver, Kris Kristofferson, Carly Simon, Ben Harper, Joan Baez, and many others. With immeasurable accolades, including two Grammys and the distinction of being one of the few songwriters honored by the Library of Congress and US Poet Laureate, Prine is more than a musician…he is an American treasure.
