Childs' Theatre to tour
The KU Children's Theatre is going on the road.
Reorganized as the KU Theatre for Young People Resident Touring Company (KUTYP), the group will spend much of the 1967 spring semester touring the state with its spring dramatic production, "Two Pails of Water."
A company of hand-picked students, interested in children's theater, will devote their entire semester to the tour. They will receive both pay and credit for advanced work.
"We are offering to take the production to any city in the state that we can fit into our schedule and that can afford the small fee necessary to defray expenses," Jed H. Davis, director of the company, said.
A DOZEN performances already are scheduled in Salina, Iola, and Kansas City, Mo.
The base fee for "Two Pails of Water" in any Kansas community will be $275 a day, plus $75 for each additional performance during the day.
The KUTYP will work with groups in the community to arrange for joint sponsorship or other means of making the performance possible. KUTYP likes to perform during school hours, since it has found that children have a more satisfying experience if they attend the performance as a school group.
The play, by Aad Greidanus, is translated from the Dutch and comes from the Dutch Toneelgroep Arena players who tour Holland presenting several plays each year to Dutch children. The play, which lasts about an hour, is a comedy.
"WE WILL TOUR on weekends, on weekdays, when ever and wherever wanted between March 6 and May 15." Davis said.
He is past president of the Children's Theater Conference and is now a member of the Board of Advisers of the American Center of the International Association of Theaters for Children and Youth. He is co-author of the widely used textbook, "Children's Theater."
Why the KUTYP? "Partly because of the demand," Davis said, "and our inability to satisfy it without undue sacrifice by students who have other classes to meet. And then, too, we feel that theater has an important part to play in the process of child's education, in influencing human behavior and relationships, in conveying the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the ages, in gaining insight into the actions of others and into ourselves."
It the KUTYP tour is as successful as expected, children's theater will become available throughout the state, and the tour will become an annual event.
