Go West
Go West
There's gold in them thar hills! Gold has been discovered in the hills of California. Land is being given away to settlers willing to make a fresh start in the newly explored regions of the American West. Cowpokes and miners, farmers and trappers, gamblers and adventurers of all kinds are making their way west to chase the promise of the American Dream. They come by way of wagon train, horseback, steamboat and railroad. "Go West" combines music, history and drama to explore important facts about the westward expansion of the early US and discovers that real wealth is not always the kind made into ingots and jewelry. Real wealth is found in inspiring new ideas, fresh starts and attainable dreams in the land of the free. The Teacher Edition includes the full script, accompanied songs, production guide and choreography suggestions. 40 minutes.
