From the Kanza Prairie to the White House: The story of the boy who would grow up to be Vice President Charles Curtis

Grandma Curtis (Permelia Hubbard Curtis), paternal grandmother of the little Indian boy who would become Vice President of the United States.  Portrayed by Kitty Frank.

Charles was raised by his grandmothers; one who could trace her lineage to the 1832 landing of the Good Ship Elizabeth on the shores of New England.  The other traced her lineage to Chief White Hair (Pawhuska) of the Osage People and Chief White Plume of the Kanza (Kaw) people.  Which life would Charlie choose?

Performances are available for booking.  Very reasonable rates.
