On-The-Go! School Tour March-April 2007

Taking its inspiration from the paintings of Tom Two Arrows in the collection of the Albany Institute of History and Art and from the rich oral tradition of the Iroquois, this lively theatrical adaptation explores Iroquois legends and traditions season by season. Games, sances and stories that have been handed down for generations come to life to tell the story of these early residents of what is now New York State.

On-The-Go's Petticoats of Steel
Written by Carolyn Anderson & Jill Rafferty
On-The-Go! School Tour March 2006

Experience the battles for women's suffrage told in the voices of the brave warriors who fought them. This world premiere uses primary sources, including the voices of Lucretia Mott, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Clara Barton and many others to tell the true story of the women of New York State and the role they played in gaining voting rights for all women. From Seneca Falls in 1848 to the historic vote in the New York State Senate that granted New York Women the right to vote in 1917, these uncompromising women changed the face of the state…and the nation.
