8. Cheaper by the Dozen
Evergreen Productions Inc
|
September 24 - October 3, 2021
Evergreen Productions is excited to return to live theatre with Cheaper by the Dozen in the Webb Theater at St Norbert College
Anne is the oldest child of a large and unique family whose patriarch is, in fact, one of the great pioneers of industrial efficiency. When he decides, for no apparent reason, to apply his unorthodox methods to Anne and to the rest of the family, the results are terribly embarrassing, funny and—it must be admitted—extremely effective! When Anne begins to rebel, both Dad and she are miserable at the lack of understanding between them until Dad becomes aware of just how much Anne has grown up.
Dramatized by Christopher Sergel
From the book by Frank B. Gilbreth Jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey
This family-friendly production will delight all ages.
Evergreen Productions will follow St Norbert College COVID protocols for patrons.
