Story Time Live

In EFaME’s newest production, Story Time LIVE, a live orchestra will perform musical settings of three classic children’s novels, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, and The Hobbit. In each work, a live narrator will tell a short story in which our heroes and heroines will traverse obstacles that only the bravest can overcome. Projection, lights, and a full orchestra will immerse you into these tales and give life to these magnificent stories. Join us at the Strong Museum of Play on March 1st at 2pm in the newly renovated Paychex Theater. Story Time Live features the wonderfully talented soprano, Julia Fedor (Eastman School of Music Class of ‘19) and Professor James VanDermark (Professor of Bass at the Eastman School of Music) as our Narrator. This performance was made possible by contributions from Eastman's Beal Institute of Film Music and Contemporary Media.
