The Shoestring Ensemble
To be renamed in 2026-2027 to
Stagecrafe on a Shoestring!
Two French Tales
The Shoestring Ensemble 2025-26 performed their adaptation of two French folk tales titled Two French Tales on Friday, January 9th, 2026 in the newly renovated Academic & Performing Arts Center.
Students participate as actors in a drama production in which the ensemble is on stage during the entire performance. Through a series of vigorous group exercises and collaborative planning, the ensemble experience teaches students the strength and beauty that a coordinated group of actors can offer any performance. Class-time rehearsals and tech rehearsals culminate in two required performances at the end of the term.
Envious Sisters
This original adaptation comes from the 1001 Arabian Nights tales.
