SUMMARY:Crane River Theater “Pretty Fire” Touring Production (students only)
DESCRIPTION:Crane River Theater Company will tour a performance of “Pretty Fire” to high schools across Nebraska.

This award-winning play addresses topics like race\, diversity\, and the civil rights movement\, but the entire play is told through the eyes of a child with stories about her family.
