Springer Opera’s Theatre for the Very Young Production

features ‘Out of this World’ Performance

Presented in Partnership with

Columbus State University’s Coca-Cola Space Science Center

(Columbus, Ga.) - The world needs superheroes right now, and it's the Springer to the

rescue! The Springer's Theatre for the Very Young Series has partnered with the Columbus

State University Coca-Cola Space Science Center to present A Superhero for All

Seasons, a play that features young twin superheroes-in-training working together

through a surprising challenge and learning important lessons along the way.

Performances begin Saturday, May 6, at 10:00 a.m. in the Omnisphere Theater of

Columbus State University’s Coca Cola Space Science Center. The Springer’s Theatre for the Very Young

Series produces developmentally appropriate, immersive, and educational theatrical shows for

children ages zero through five years and their caregivers.

The play begins as Shadow and Shine, our young superheroes-in-training, answer the

call to meet with the Season's Council - Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall - to see who

will move forward from training to become the next superhero. But things go differently

than planned! Shadow and Shine's growing superhero powers are tested when a

surprise visitor arrives at the Council meeting. With references to seasons, science,

nature, and essential life lessons, this play is sure to entertain and educate children of

all ages.

"I am so excited for our littlest audience members to see this show! It’s fun and

interactive. Our Director of Education, DB Woolbright, helped us create some original

music for the show, and it will get stuck in your head," said Meagan Cascone, director of

the production and director of the PAIR Program, a professional development program

for teachers developed through the Springer Opera House. "The cast did such a

wonderful job creating a show that teaches kids about the seasons and how important

teamwork is while still keeping imagination and excitement as the driving force."

The play features a talented cast of young actors who bring the characters to life with

energy and enthusiasm. The interactive nature of the performances means that children

in the audience will have the opportunity to participate in the action, making it a truly

immersive experience. By incorporating themes like seasons, science, and nature,

children are inspired to learn more about the world around them while also having fun.

Pre-show and museum activities that include crafts, bubbles, and books will take place

thirty minutes before the show. Museum admission is included with each ticket to the

performance.
