Macomb Community College issued the following announcement on Jan. 5.
Macomb Community College’s Macomb Center’s Page to Stage, a series of curriculum-connected stage performances for youth ages prekindergarten to eight grade has been reimagined due to the pandemic and is being presented virtually. The performances include adaptations of children’s literature, scientific demonstrations, and musical and dance performances. Each presentation, featuring professional national and international artists, has been prerecorded and is available free of charge to parents and teachers.
“These world-class productions bring to life in new and exciting ways subjects being taught in the classroom,” said William Wood, director, Cultural Affairs and Community Engagement, Macomb Community College. “Due to the pandemic, we’ve shifted to a virtual format, which has also given us the ability to expand our offerings and make available performances not usually accessible.”
Each title will be available virtually for two weeks to 90 days, depending on the production, and run approximately one hour in length. Many of the presentations include free supplemental classroom materials designed to keep students engaged. Since the virtual Page to Stage produced were introduced in November nearly 6,000 people have registered for one of the performances.
