History comes alive with Thomas Edison - now available in Califorina and the Pacific Northwest

 

Thomas Edison was an American inventor who held over a thousand patents for his inventions, including the photograph, the motion picture camera, and the electric lightbulb, among many others. Some of his works laid the foundation for modern technology devices which we still use to this day! His impact on modern technology and industrialization is huge. His work ethic, innovative spirit, and contributions to science and technology have made him a legendary figure in history – and we honor his legacy with the Thomas Edison assembly program.


Our Thomas Edison assembly program has been a mainstay in our lineup for years.  Some of our very best performers have played the role of the world's greatest inventor including Joe French, Jim Tait, Ryan Thompson, Tom Swenson, Tom Johnson and more.

Now, Peter Small joins the list of world-class Thomas Edison performers!  This veteran history performer also portrays George Washington, Teddy Roosevelt and Thomas Jefferson in school assemblies of their own.  He will be playing Edison (and the other characters) in schools in California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nedava, New Mexcio and Colorado, with other states to be announced.
