History in Schools
Duende offers a menu of plays that bring to life important moments in history, showing common people rising to make difficult moral decisions. These plays are each about forty-five minutes long, are coordinated with the curriculum, and come complete with study guides. Duende is joining forces with Sacramento’s California Stage Company to bring our plays to schools in the greater Sacramento area. Performances can be booked through our marketing director Barbara Falcon by telephone (916-451-5844) or by email (barbara.falcon@DuendeDrama.org).
