The production of Addy, performed by the Seattle Children's Theatre at the Flynn Theatre in Burlington Vermont , was outstanding. I am a native New Yorker and have many experiences with Broadway plays and this production was 'up there' with the best. The performers were extremely engaging and the children (and the adults) really connected with them. I don't believe I have ever seen a theatre full of children so engrossed in a performance before...you could hear a pin drop. The script was true to the book. The scenery and props truly depicted the era portrayed and transformed everyone back to the period of the Civil War. My class and I were right up front and I believe it was the first experience of a live show for my third graders. I would encourage children and adults to see this wonderful performance of the struggles of slavery in our history. Again...bravo to the performers!
