600 Highwaymen
Employee of the Year

Venue: Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center. Kogood Theatre, General Admission.

PARENTAL ADVISORY: Although this play features child actors, it is not children’s theatre and is not appropriate for young children. Not suitable for children under 11.

A child’s house burns down, leaving everyone and everything she has behind. From this moment, a singular journey begins. 600 Highwaymen’s Employee of the Year brings together five young girls in an attempt to probe what it means to grow up and ask how people become who they are. What do we lose and what do we search for? Combining an arresting theatrical style with original songs by Obie Award-winner David Cale, this work intimately investigates the process of transformation over the course of lifetime, acted with the innocence and knowing of young girls who are not ashamed by feelings and therefore make us less ashamed of our own.

Blue Sky Puppets presents “The Jester’s Box”

College Park Arts Exchange
Old Parish House, 4711 Knox Road, College Park MD

Blue Sky Puppet Theatre’s most charming and unusual show! This “Table Top” performance is a big stylistic departure from the rod puppets behind a tall curtain that we’re famous for. This 35 minute presentation is an intimate show that is performed Bunraku style on a custom built table with the performer visible.

A jester named Ralph is off to see the King who Never Found Anything Funny Enough To Make Him Laugh. If Ralph can make the King laugh, he will gain fame and gold. Ralph makes camp outside the King’s castle, and while he’s asleep the King appears. Luckily, one of Ralph’s rag dolls comes to life and does a series of hilarious tricks, making the King roar with laughter!

The AHA Kids Series is appropriate for ages 3 and 8 with their parents. This show is FREE and open to the public — Your generous donation to College Park Arts Exchange is always appreciated!
