Off to the Prairie--One More Time


Granddaughter Taylor Bera is headed back to the Prairie once again as she joins up with the cast of “Little House on the Prairie The Musical” —this time in Kansas City.

No, there wasn’t an urgent call saying they needed to her to retake the stage to reprise her role as Carrie or as Ruby, but for the next couple of days she’ll get to do something that she didn’t ever do in eight months as a member of the Little House cast, she’ll get to enjoy the show and cheer from a seat in the audience.

For 210 regular shows and countless rehearsals and previews, she was on onstage in costume alongside the cast.

Taylor and her father, Joe, left this morning for Kansas City to meet and party a bit with the Little House cast in Kansas City as the final performances of the musical’s national tour are held in the outdoor Starlight Theater. It closes on Sunday.

My reason for this blog is to let Taylor’s fans know that there’ll be one more report from the Prairie next week after Taylor returns and before she and sister, Maggie, head off to the Paper Mill’s summer conservatory program in New Jersey.

I’ll be interviewing her about her experiences with her friends and their memories of her time on the prairie with the cast of Little House. She says that she and father Joe will be taking lots of pictures in Kansas City.

  1. thank you so much for all your reports. Loved reading them. I have a feeling that before to long you'll be doing these from the RED CARPET for some major awards show, the Tony's maybe or Oscars????!
