Metro Theater

We enjoyed an amazing performance today by Metro Theater.  Students saw into the lives of girls growing up with the restrictions of Puritan society.  As the girls met in the woods for a secretive social outlet, they told stories (including "ghost" stories), danced, and dreamed of their future lives.  Students saw the group fall apart when discovered and friends turn on each other, accusing others of witchcraft to try to avoid the consequences of their actions. I am eager to spend more time in discussion with the students! I especially want to help them understand the historical background vs. the fictional story and help process through the consequences of the actions the girls took.  It's important to see how God calls us to follow him, and how He forgives all who repent.  Thanks to the moms who helped chaperone.

Due to copyright protection, I only have a photo of the set and several from our chilly picnic!
