Schenectady Theater for Children, Inc.

A performance from The Great Minds Series includes a 45 minute long presentation by an area actor portraying an individual from the past who made a major impact on the way we live today.

In selecting the characters to be portrayed, consideration has been taken that the term great mind should not be exclusive to the field of science, but should include the social sciences and the arts as well.  A truly great mind is not only marked by genius, but also by creativity, patience and tolerance.
