NCTC class to produce children’s classic, Corduroy
This Spring, North Central Texas College Drama is presenting a Theater Practicum class which will produce the children’s classic Corduroy by Don Freeman. The class meets on Fridays from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM in Gainesville at the First State Bank Center for the Performing Arts.
An expansion of the beloved picture book that follows Corduroy throughout the department store in search of his missing button while pursued by an increasingly exasperated night watchman. Little Lisa, in the meantime, searches for a way to win over Mom so she can give the bear a loving home. The tender, enduring story about longing, determination, and true friendship stirs up the stage with a rumpus of action, joy, and pathos.
It is part of NCTC Drama’s program to introduce Pre-K through First Grade to live theater. If you are interested in taking this course, it is DRAM 1120.100 and scholarships are available. Spring registration will be open between January 3 and when spring classes start on January 18. Contact Thom Talbott at ttalbott@nctc.edu for more information.
