presentations, the show incorporates audience participation into the
production, offering students the opportunity to fully experience the
joy of storytelling and theatre. “This Toronto-based theatre company
travels the globe with their original adaptations of fairy tales and
classic stories, providing audiences of all ages with experiences they
will never forget,” stated DCCA Artistic Director David Warner.
“DuffleBag Theatre’s visit to our schools will expand imaginations,
inspire creativity, and be a lot of fun for all concerned,” Mr. Warner
concluded.
