In this age of passive entertainment and shouting that passes for news, the Touring Theatre of North Carolina asks you to breathe deeply of the human experience and through its performances get involved with your intellect and imagination. Like
the best investigative journalism it uncovers unforgettable people like civil rights worker Fannie Lou Hamer, the women veterans of WWII, children caught in the events of the Holocaust, characters from Southern fiction and from the liveliest of children’s tales. The Touring Theatre keeps its props and sets to a minimum so that audience members can focus on the language of the literature and come away with minds stretched
to encompass new forms and ideas. |

I hereby nominate the Touring Theatre Ensemble of North Carolina for the status of ‘national living treasure.’ The company is already an unofficial state treasure. |

It’s not always easy to watch productions by the Touring Theatre Ensemble of North Carolina. The troupe often tells stories that simply need to be told and it can be difficult to bear witness to these tales of injustice, hardship and perservance. |

Schleunes's works are all educational and
she strives to be correct in all of her representations. They bring history to life
for those who have only read about it.
