All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten by Santiago Theatre

Magdalena Reutzel, Staff Writer

Now that spring is here and the end of the school year is drawing closer, the Santiago Theatre is putting on its latest production. For this semester, the play is “All I Ever Really Needed to Know I Learned In Kindergarten.” This show is based on the books written by Robert Fulghum and was adapted into a play/musical by Ernest Zulia and has music/lyrics written by David Caldwell. 

On the website where you can buy tickets for the show the description says “Based on Robert Fulghum’s best-selling books, Kindergarten takes a funny, insightful, heartwarming look at what is profound in everyday life. It’s an evening of theatrical storytelling in revue format, with monologues, dialogues. The delightful stories feature colorful characters such as a shy little boy who insists on playing the “pig” in his class production of Cinderella and steals the show; a man whose dream of flying carries him high over Los Angeles … in a lawn chair buoyed by surplus weather balloons; a “mother of the bride” who’s staged a perfect wedding—until the bowling ball of fate rolls down the aisle; and a modern-day Greek philosopher who finds the meaning of life in a piece of broken mirror from World War II. These stories celebrate our very existence, from the whimsy of childhood to the wisdom of old age. Along with this description is a list of the cast and crew. 

On the Santiago Theatre Instagram, they posted a picture that publicized their show, with the written caption saying stating the information needed to stream the show and saying “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten is a collection of comedic and dramatic scenes that show how we use the lessons we learned in Kindergarten throughout our lives.”

The show streams from April 22nd to April 24th, 2021 at certain times. For the Thursday show, the showing is at 7:00 p.m. The Friday show is also at the same time. For Saturday, however, the showing is at 2:00 p.m. The tickets are ten dollars apiece.
