The NFCC Children's Theater 2009-2010 was exciting and successful season:

NOVEMBER 2009:  Poetry Alive performed poems - from classics to contemporary pieces - for more than 200 students and educators in the NFCC Fine Arts Auditorium. But this was no ordinary poetry reading; two performers gave a high-energy, dramatic reading of poems and got the audience involved and interested in poetry. The group also traveled to Madison County High School and performed for around 50 high school students and gave the same high-energy, theatrical poetry show that was such a hit at NFCC. Question/Answer sessions were held at the end of each show allowing the audience to find out more about the poetry, the performers and the performance.  

NOVEMBER 2009: Bits N' Pieces Puppet Theatre performed Alice in Wonderland at Van H. Priest Auditorium for more than one thousand K-4th grade students from Madison, Hamilton, Jefferson and Taylor counties. The show featured amazing nine-feet-tall puppets and an educational story and study guide. Following the show, performers explained how the puppets are built and used to tell stories on stage.
