Look Both Ways

School-only performances are by invitation
  Monday, April 7, 2025

Created by The Kennedy Center Theatre for Young Audiences on Tour based on a book by Jason Reynolds.

These vignettes explore themes of identity, compassion, fear, and friendship—as told through puppetry, dance, music, projections, audience participation, kamishibai (paper theater), and more. This play encourages students to look both ways when crossing the street, and also to notice the people walking by.
