Family Events in St. Louis

Through story and song, the play shines a light on their dreams, their times with family and friends, and the trials and tribulations they faced as children living in a divided and segregationist city. A full chorus sets the tone with spirituals and anthems of the Civil Rights Movement such as "Amazing Grace," "Oh, Freedom," and "Woke Up This Morning." This production is a collaboration between The Black Rep and COCA.

Families can enjoy animal shows, a corn maze, the new Grant's Farm pumpkin patch where you can pick your own pumpkins, gourds and decorative corn, and the Kid's Fun Zone, that features a corn play box, sand box, farm equipment to sit on, and open areas to run and play.
