we want the whole community to have an op
portunity to see the play’s message.”
The play is 20 minutes long, features
choreography and music and will be per
formed by the young actors —- or ’magineers
— of ’magination Station.
Although the play is geared toward a young
audience, Wilson said there is something for all
age groups.
“Surprisingly, it works for all ages,” Wilson
said. “It targets 4th to 6th graders, the real at-
risk age. But the adults who have seen it loved
it. The school audiences really loved it. Even the
private schools who saw it loved it — and that’s
a tough audience.”
Wilson said he feels that even the college
crowd can benefit from coming to the show.
