  • Digital Brochure 1-Sheet
    ™ By arrangement with Frederick Warne & Co. nce upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were – Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail and Pet™er….” These famous opening lines of “The Tale of Peter Rabbit” have enchanted young audiences for over one “O hundred years with the exploits of a charming hero, who, going against his mother’s wishes, has adventures (and misadventures) in Mr. McGregor’s garden. Beatrix Potter created an instant classic with the little blue-coated rabbit who we recognize as both boy and rabbit, wild and civilized, and who has become an icon of childhood since he first hopped out of the pages of a story book and into children’s hearts. Now Enchantment Theatre Company is delighted to collaborate with Frederick Warne & Co. and Penguin Books UK to present the authorized theatrical version of Peter Rabbit™ Tales. Meet Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny, Beatrix Potter’s beloved characters, as they escape from Mr. McGregor, outfox Mr. Tod and rescue the Flopsy Bunnies from the disagreeable badger, Tommy Brock. When Benjamin’s children disappear, he goes to his cousin, Peter Rabbit, to help him find the bunnies. But Peter thinks he’s had quite enough of adventure, remembering his youthful escapades in Mr. McGregor’s garden. As the cousins reminisce about their past adventures, their friends - Squirrel Nutkin, Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, Jemima Puddle-duck and Mrs. Tittlemouse - gather to encourage Peter on this one last quest. In celebration of Beatrix Potter’s 150th birthday anniversary, Enchantment Theatre brings her captivating stories to life. Using fantastic masks, whimsical puppets, gorgeous scenery and original music, the magical, marvelous World of Beatrix Potter™ comes alive on stage.

Introduce the Story Say: Today I’m going to read you a story about a rabbit you may have heard of. His name is Peter, and he lives with his family.

  • Mia Thuro Annotated Bibliography 1. National Geographic. (2017
    Mia Thuro Annotated Bibliography 1. National Geographic. (2017). Keystone Species. This National Geographic article talks about zoologist Robert T. Paine, who came up with the term “keystone species” and did the first major research on them. This article also explains the different types of keystone species such as, nutrient vectors, keystone prey, keystone hosts, and keystone trophics. The article provides several examples and explanations for each type. This article was helpful as a beginning place for me to find basic information on different types of keystone species. 2. Greentumble.com. (2017). 12 Examples of Keystone Species. This article lists 12 very important keystone species. It also goes into some more detail about what each of these species does, and what makes them a keystone species. This is helpful to me so that I can understand why these species are important and so that I can begin to narrow down which species I want to draw, and do further research on each of these species. 3. Defenders of Wildlife. (2017). Basic Facts About Prairie Dogs. This Defenders of Wildlife article focuses on important facts about Prairie Dogs. The article gives information about their diet, behaviors, habitats, and why they are keystone species. It talks about how Prairie Dogs’ burrows provide habitats to many other species, how they are prey to many species, and how they aerate and fertilize the land so that more plants can grow. All of this information is helpful to me in better understanding the importance of Prairie Dogs in their habitats, and how I can portray them in my drawings to relay this information.

  • Beatrix Potter: Lover of Nature” Before Answering Numbers 1 Through 5
    UNIT 3 WEEK 4 Read the article “Beatrix Potter: Lover of Nature” before answering Numbers 1 through 5. Beatrix Potter: Lover of Nature Some people love nature. They spend time in it, draw about it, and write about it. Beatrix Potter was like that. Beatrix was born long ago, on July 28, 1866. She lived in a large house in London, England. In those days, well-to-do little girls did not go to school. They were taught at home. Beatrix was no different, and her parents hired a teacher to teach her reading, writing, art, and music. Beatrix had a little brother named Bertram. Both she and her brother had a schoolroom in the house where they studied. But when Bertram was six, he went away to school. After that, Beatrix was very lonesome since her parents did not allow other children to play with her. So Beatrix was on her own in a very big house. She spent a lot of this time drawing and painting. During the summers, the Potter family left the noisy city and went to the country. Beatrix loved her time in nature. In the city, the children’s freedom was limited. In the country, they could play freely, exploring the forests and meadows. All the time, Beatrix and Bertram drew pictures of everything they saw. They even caught wild animals and tamed them! Some of them they kept as pets. They had rabbits, a snake, a green frog, a tortoise, and two lizards. Beatrix and Bertram kept a collection of the animals in her schoolroom in London.
