"Miss Johnson's Trunk"

Miss Johnson's Trunk - A Historical Production written by Greg and Cindy Sweatt.

A glimpse of the history of Parker is explained with this exceptional and well-researched production piece, written by local playwrights, Greg and Cindy Sweatt. Taking place in the late 1940’s, this story is about a teacher in a one-roomed schoolhouse in Parker, during a blizzard. Since the students and teacher must wait out the storm, Miss Johnson finds a unique way to entertain her students, by opening her trunk pulling out artifacts from the past…and begins to tell tales about the history of Parker.
PAC is very excited about this upcoming production, as we plan for it to include our Interns, children from the community, the Historical Society, the Town of Parker and local residents that can trace their family roots through the history of Parker. We are planning to offer several performances as a field trip option for the 3rd graders attending the Parker Elementary Schools to enhance their scheduled curriculum of studying the history of Parker.
