"It's designed to appeal to history buffs or younger learners and sparks conversation. It's for girls, boys, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles...there is something for truly anyone." With past presentations, Basmajian said seeing diverse, multi-generational groups was remarkable. "The show sparks conversations. It's inspiring to see the stories it brings out of people. It's a performance, and it's also a joyous celebration."
