Performing Arts Visual and - The Kinkaid School
Welcome
to the 20212022
Season of the Arts!

Dear Kinkaid Family,
Last year was a tough one. However, through the
ingenuity and creativity of our students and faculty,
we were able to use the 2020-2021 academic year
to discover new ways to grow as artists. And now,
as we tentatively wade into the waters of a post-
pandemic world, we are thrilled at the prospect
of bringing the magic that is live performance
and gallery-going back to our entire community.
It is that growth and magic we hope to harness this year and that served as inspiration in
choosing this year’s titles. This year’s season focuses on young people (all of our principal
characters are under the age of 18) and the trials and tribulations they face as they brave
the magical experience of transforming from child to adolescent and from adolescent to
adult. While faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles, many of the characters we
will meet this year discover their limitless potential. And through their journeys, we, as
audience members, are cautioned that we often serve as the obstacles for others’ growth:
judging, assuming, and dismissing can limit both the growth of those around us and
ourselves. Just as a plant needs water to bloom, we need the appreciation and kindness
of others to grow.
I believe that the magic of good art is that it fuels our growth. In challenging us to see the
world a little differently, art inspires us to grow into more empathetic and compassionate
citizens of the world.
Come grow with us in 2021-2022.
We’ve all got magic to do.

Applause,

Scott Lambert
Director of Visual and Performing Arts

Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence, and psycho-
kinetic powers. She’s unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her
schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Matilda’s school life
isn’t completely smooth sailing, however – the school’s mean head-
mistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking
up new punishments for those who don’t abide by her rules. But
Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts and could be
the school pupils’ saving grace! Inspired by the twisted genius of
Roald Dahl and winner of 4 Tony® Awards, Matilda the Musical JR.
revels in the anarchy of childhood and the power of imagination.

 KIM ARTHUR AND THE NERDS OF THE ROUND
 TABLE G
 By Daniel Guyton
 February 1112, 2022
 The Edwards Black Box Theatre
 When the mysterious “Motherboard in the Stone” appears at Kim
 Arthur’s favorite arcade emporium, she and her magical friend Marlene
 decide to check it out. Soon Kim realizes that only she has the power
 to remove the Motherboard from the Stone, thus becoming queen of
 Game-A-Lot. But uneasy is the head that wears the crown, and it’s up
 to Kim to save the arcade from closing — by creating the greatest video
 game of all time. She knows she can’t do it alone; she’ll need the help of
 all of her fellow nerds. And so begins the legend of Kim Arthur and the
 Nerds of the Round Table.

 Lawrence D. Cohen / Based on the novel by Stephen King
 February 2527, 2022
 The Brown Auditorium
 It’s bloody. It’s creepy. It’s CARRIE the Musical! Based on Stephen King’s
 best-selling novel, CARRIE the Musical hasn’t been seen much since
 its legendary 1988 Broadway production. Now, the show’s original
 authors have reworked and fully re-imagined this gripping tale into
 an Off-Broadway award winning musical. Set today, in the small town
 of Chamberlain, Maine, Carrie White is a misfit. At school, she’s an
 outcast who’s bullied by the popular crowd yet virtually invisible to
 everyone else. At home, she’s at the mercy of her loving yet cruelly
 over-protective mother. But Carrie’s just discovered she’s got a special
 power. And if pushed too far, she’s not afraid to use it…
