Kansas City visitors to the National World War I Museum recently witnessed an impressive exhibition from an international theater production.
Seriously, the life size puppet animal from WAR HORSE is kinda KICK-ASS.
Too bad this stuff is wasted on kids . . . On the embed link and my playlist, I trimmed the clip down to avoid showing any of the students on this dump of a blog. To check the whole video out, just watch it on Youtube.
War Horse Visits the National WWI Museum in Kansas City
Youtube deets:
"On April 17, 2013, the National World War I Museum announced a collaborative initiative with the Kansas City Broadway Series and the North American Tour of the National Theatre of London's Production of WAR HORSE in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of World War I. The Tony Award-winning play, which chronicles a remarkable bond between a boy named Albert and his loyal horse, Joey, will play Kansas City's Music Hall, April 1-6, 2014."

That is very cool.
ReplyDeleteThe WWI Liberty Memorial is a world class exhibit that no other city in the world can touch when it comes to remembering the History of that terrible war.
Seriously, it is hard to get your arms around how fascinating the exhibits are and I honestly reccomend it for the whole family.
I realize, that taking your kids and wife to a place which explains American History is in no way cool, but I have taken kids and adults there and I had a hard time getting them to leave after 2 hours.
Those same kids and adults had and have very little interest in history.
It is a marvelous, magical place.
The closest thing to time travel that I have ever experinced.
here, here, chuck. very, very cool place. in fact, most people who haven't been there can't really fathom what lies beneath the Liberty Memorial. you truly leave there with a new appreciation of how that war shaped our modern world and just how horrific that war was at the time.
ReplyDeletefrom a first-person account, the War Horse appearance dazzled kids and adults.
Isn't that the place where the museum director shows you his dick on cam?
ReplyDeleteWho knew THAT was happening in WWI?
