I'm sitting here at the Warner Park community center where "Playtime Productions" Children's theatre is putting on a performance of their spring production "Snow White". Snow White is played beautifully by Abbie Seaman, a Glacial Drumlin sixth grader (one of several talented MG students in the production.) In this version of the fairy tale she has 13 "Vertically Challenged" friends.
Playtime Productions presents musical theatre by kids for kids and was founded and run for many years by long-time Monona resident Teddy Stutd. Each production reaches thousands of people through 16 public performances around Dane County each spring and fall.
If you haven't yet seen this spring's show you have plenty of opportunity. They will be at the Barrymore Theater tomorrow afternoon (Sunday) and will play the MG High School auditorium on Friday May 8th. The full schedule can be found here.

About Me
- Peter Sobol
- My family moved to Monona in 2003 and have been happily ensconsed in the Frost Woods Neighborhood ever since. I have 2 kids who graduated from Mg. I have been serving on the school board since April of 2007. We moved back to the Midwest in 2002 after spending 10 years in California, where I was a Department Director for Maxtor, a Fortune 500 company. In truth we left California largely because of the school situation - chronically underfunded schools did not offer the kind of programs or opportunities we wanted for our children. We picked Monona because our thorough research showed that this was a place we would really like to educate our kids. Our experience has taught us to value the quality schools we have here in Monona, and the importance of careful stewardship to maintain community support for those schools.

Het spel fiddler op het dak was groot! dank personeel.
Yes, I hear many good things about the "Fiddler on the Roof" production. Unfortunately I had a previous engagement with the Playtime show last night so I couldn't attend. (Katherine runs the lighting and I go along to do the setups)
