Got the post-holiday, winter weather blues? Brighten up your life, and laugh yourself silly, with the Fremont Players (and the Fremont Philharmonic) in the British Panto production of ‘Peter Pan.’ Declared “rowdy and playfully irreverent,” by ParentMap, this family friendly show will leave adults rolling just as much as the kids.
Over the Christmas holiday, the Children’s Music Foundation and its founder and president, Rourke O’Brien, have spent several long days at Fremont Studios with a film crew, music teacher host (called ‘Miss Melody,’ Rachel Brackett is a teacher at Lakeview Elementary,) child performers, and visiting musicians. Together they are creating the DVDs that will be the final piece of a First Note music curriculum to be offered to schools all over the country.

The Woodland Park Zoo is open every day, and this mild winter weather makes a stroll around the grounds a perfect activity for the whole family.

This weekend offers a variety of live theater – ballet, British Panto and heart-warming family drama – ideal for families, and/or those who enjoy interactive, holiday-flavored entertainment. Check out ‘Steadfast Tin Soldier’ by Dance Fremont, ‘A Child’s Christmas In Wales’ at Stone Soup Theatre, ‘Peter Pan’ at Hale’s Paladium – plus the final weekend to see ‘A Pale & Lovely Place’ for those in a more adult, less heart-warming family mood…
Don’t Forget – Until Tuesday, December 13th, the Edward Jones office of Marko Tubic (503 N 36th) will serve as a Fremont drop-off point for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve ‘Toys For Tots’ program.
