Tiger Tales: Hmong Folktales

Teachers, educators, parents please make time to go and see this show with your students and children.

This is a wonderful play that will bring joy, laughter and even maybe tears to your eyes. It did for me when I saw it about 8 years ago. The show will be running for the whole month of May so you have plenty of

time to choose a date and time to take your children. This play will open up an opportunity for you to discuss Hmong culture, history and a whole host of other topics.

Synopsis:
A play about a Hmong family living in St. Paul is having trouble adapting to life in their new home until Grandmother shares some traditional Tiger stories with them.

Through these three stories, the children find a deeper connection with their own culture, and learn how they can use the stories’ messages to help them defeat the “tigers” of American life.
