Ellis Island: Gateway to a Dream (Schooltime Performance)

Ellis Island: Gateway to a Dream is appropriate for ages 6 through adult and addresses Learning Standards for English Language Arts and Social Studies Learning Standards.

A high-spirited musical about courage, hope, and the challenges of the immigration experience, “Ellis Island” celebrates the multi-cultural foundations of our nation with wonder, action, and heart. How far would you travel to find a better life? What if the journey took weeks under difficult conditions? If you answered “Whatever it takes,” you echo the feelings of the 12 million immigrants who came to America between 1892 and 1954. Ellis Island afforded them the opportunity to attain the American dream for themselves and their descendants.
