Theatre IV Brings HIAWATHA to Kelsey Theatre Today
The inspiring story of HIAWATHA comes to Mercer County Community College's (MCCC's) Kelsey Theatre in November. Presented as part of the Kelsey Kids Series, this tale of the legendary Native American leader is presented by the award-winning Theatre IV today, Nov. 14 at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus at 1200 Old Trenton Road.
With book and lyrics by Stuart Hawk and music by Andrea Beasalt, Theatre IV's HIAWATHA brings Native American history and culture thrillingly to life in this fact-based musical adventure. The show tells the classic story of young Hiawatha, who, approximately 150 years before the first permanent English colony at Jamestown, made history when he peacefully united the Five Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy. His name was immortalized in Longfellow's 1855 epic poem, and his exciting childhood and heroic work are celebrated in countless children's books. Renowned for his peacemaking accomplishments, Hiawatha's story remains inspiring and relevant today.
Theatre IV is a nonprofit professional theater company for young audiences, which has toured since 1975 from Wisconsin to Florida and Texas to Maine, while also presenting major productions in its home city of Richmond, Va. The company performs live for more than half a million children, teens, parents and teachers across America every year.
Tickets for HIAWATHA are $10 for children, students and seniors, and $12 for adults. Tickets may be purchased online at www.kelseytheatre.net or by calling the Kelsey Box Office at 609-570-3333. Kelsey Theatre is wheelchair accessible, with free parking available next to the theater.
