STORY
Mr. Alonza Smith is a St. Louis businessman who has just been promoted to run the New York office of his firm. The news that his family must pack up and leave immediately comes just two weeks before the grandest event ever to take place in St. Louis – the opening of the 1904 World’s Fair. While he is willing to move, his wife and family are not. Between the romances of his oldest daughters, a love-struck collegiate son and the mischief of his youngest girls, Mr Smith’s plans become “happily” foiled.

HISTORY
Lost Marbles Theatrics (LMT) was started in fall 2003 by Nana Tonkin (producer) and Kathy Hedges (director) with the goal of creating a good environment for home school students to glorify God through the arts. LMT put on its first production, “Every Little Crook and Nanny” in May 2004. It was a great success and was followed by Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Ernest” (2005), “You Can’t Take It With You” (2006), “Pride and Prejudice” (2007), “David Copperfield” (2008) and “Anne of Green Gables” (2009).
Every year members of the group attend classes in various aspects of theatrical education as well as production meetings for behind-the-scenes aspects of the production, such as designing and making sets and costumes and public relations.
