The Rep’s Educational Tour is back on the road in Fall 2024!
MONSTER + FARMER
By JM Christiansen
Step into the world of Riley, a teenage science whiz living on a Montana ranch near the Mission Mountains. When she picks up a copy of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," Riley is inspired to craft a DIY creature of her own – all chronicled on her YouTube channel! When her creation goes haywire, Riley and her brother Aidan must minimize the chaos (and save the cows!), while all the world watches through their smartphones. MONSTER + FARMER is about creation and connection in an increasingly digital world.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need to provide a stage for the performance? No. We have performed in libraries, lunch rooms, gyms, and large classrooms.
Do we need to provide lights and sound? No. We arrive with our own set, lights, sound, and crew.
Do you need help setting up and tearing down? Yes. We greatly appreciate student help with load-in and load-out!
How many people can attend the show? Any number can come to the performance, depending on your space. However, the workshops are designed for a maximum of 30-35 participants, please.
Who determines the times of the performance and the workshops?
You do. We can accommodate almost any schedule. In schools, we often present a morning performance, eat lunch with our students, and then conduct one or two workshops in the afternoon. Community performances are usually in the evenings, and the workshop is optional.
