Page to Stage

The students are working in groups lately to bring stories of local history to life on the stage. They've been helped in these efforts by members of Saranac Lake's own full time theatre company, Pendragon Theatre.
The Historic Saranac Lake Wiki has been a great resource for the students, who have visited the site for research and historically accurate details to include in their "mini-plays."
Among the topics the students have focused on are Winter Carnival, TB curing, bootlegging, and camping.
