Spring is coming.
Yes, I know at the moment it's freezing across half the north American continent ... but it will be here soon enough. And with spring come thoughts of green living, warmth, life, planting gardens, mowing the grass again.
And Earth day.
Last year, we launched the play "Walden: The Ballad of Thoreau" which is a four character, two act project about the final two days Henry David Thoreau spent in his cabin before leaving Walden Pond. The play, lesson plans, posters, director's notes and more were available free of charge to any school, college, community theater or home school that wanted to did in and put on a show.
Over 4,011 schools registered for the play in nine nations. Including Korea, Egypt and Syria. Wow.
It is available again for Earth Day 2008 ... plus now in Spanish and French. This time, prisons have registered, a lot of home schools, and now the Radio Drama of the play will be posted on the www.waldenplay.com website for any fan to listen to ... fully produced, great acting. And free.
The album, Walden: The Earth Song Collect is released and if you order it from the website you get a free T-Shirt. Not bad for $11, and the money is used to support the free performance of the play in schools.
Spring time. Earth Day. The Walden play ... and a free T-Shirt.
Not a bad way to head into summer :)
