A world premiere based on the book written and illustrated by Sandra Dieckmann
Adapted by Lifeline Theatre ensemble member Amanda Link
Directed by Nathaniel Niemi

This debut picture book by author and illustrator Sandra Dieckmann is adapted by ensemble member Amanda Link. Featuring a polar bear on his quest to return home, and the young crow who finds it within herself to help them, Leaf centers on the importance of compassion for each other and our planet, cooperation with others, and sharing one’s story.  Ensemble member Link teams up with director Nathaniel Niemi to bring audiences a timely world premiere that navigates our relationships with each other and our planet.

An add-on for KidSeries shows is admission to one Stories Come Alive! hour during each KidSeries production for only $10. These one hour-long sessions (running Sundays at 12 p.m., between regularly scheduled KidSeries performances) feature readings, activities and on-your-feet drama games to supplement the KidSeries productions.
