After sitting through dozens of Texas State History Museum videos and interactive exhibits in elementary school, I think live theatre sounds like a wonderful way of keeping this kind of history relevant and entertaining. I am glad that the article acknowledged the project as a means of story telling or delivering history rather than "a play" because making history entertaining as a narrative can be difficult when eight-year-olds are your target audience.
