This season included productions of THE HOUSE OF BERNARDA ALBA and BEYOND THE BLUE MOUNTAINS, a weekend long celebration of our 10th anniversary, another trip to Guatemala, and more year-round educational and outreach programming.The first production of the 2011-2012 season was Federico Garcia Lorca’s THE HOUSE OF BERNARDA ALBA, a drama of women in the villages of Spain, as a household full of women suffer the extended mourning period over the loss of the patriarch, overseen and enforced by their iron-fisted unyielding matriarch, Bernarda. In the spring, we adapted Jane Wilson Joyce’s book of poetry BEYOND THE BLUE MOUNTAINS for the stage. This book of poetry follows the stories of a family traveling west from Kentucky on the Oregon Trail, as they brave dangers and suffer great losses along the way. The season culminated with a weekend-long celebration of our 10-year anniversary at The Bard's Town. After Summer Drama programming, we then closed out the season with another summer trip to Guatemala, with ongoing support from U.S. Presbyterian congregations.
