Welcome to the Arden Theatre Company blog, where we share behind-the-scenes stories and current happenings with you. You will hear from the Arden staff as well as actors and other visiting artists, and we hope to hear from you, too. If you have an idea for a topic, please post a comment about it. We can't wait to hear what you think!
In The Borrowers, the tiny Clock family re-uses everyday items from the “human beans” that live above their tiny home. Ever wonder what you could make out of things around your house that could be thrown away?
Well, we’re teaming up with Keep Philadelphia Beautiful for a special community event promoting reuse and resourcefulness. After a discussion about recycling and minimizing waste, there will be a series of guided activities where participants can make their own action-figure hat hooks, CD ornaments, or T-Shirt tote bags. Some of these items will be displayed in the lobby of our theatre during the run of the show!
