Play & Learn

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY OCT. 23
In this thigh-slapper retelling of the classic short story, Ichabod Crane is plagued by joke-telling, prank-pulling ghosts like the headless horseman and the horseless headman! Will awkward Ichabod ever manage to woo pun-loving Katrina Van Tassal?  

This one-person play is made possible by the Library Foundation.  No registration required.  Bring your own blankets, chairs, or other seating.  Those in chairs will be asked to sit towards the back.  

Forget Jack—Jacqueline climbs the beanstalk in this version of the classic tale!  Jacqueline discovers how courageous she can be when she faces both the giant and other villagers’ expectations of her.  This one-person play is from the Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati, and made possible by a grant from the Wright Memorial Public Library Foundation >>.

The library continues an age-old storytelling tradition with its new Puppet Shows!  Stories may be classic or modern, thought-provoking or a silly hoot.  After each show, children may enjoy playing puppeteer themselves, using the library’s child-sized theater: Marilyn’s Play Place.  Perfect for preschoolers and early elementary students.
