Green Screen Adventures is a children's educational
series that is broadcast on WCIU, MeTV, MeToo, and,
most recently, on the national THIS-TV. The program is
designed to encourage students, in 2nd-8th grade, to
understand the power of their words and become
more engaged in writing. To reach this goal, a cast of
talented actors, improvisers, and singers perform
the stories that the students have submitted to the
show.They feature their work using sketch comedy,
story theatre, game shows, storytelling, original songs,
puppetry, and more.

Airing of the episodes featuring the UIC performance
students will be announced once released. However,
you can watch Green Screen Adventures:

Weekdays on MeTV at 7 a.m.
Weekdays on MeToo at 8 a.m.
Saturday mornings on "The U" at 7 a.m.
