Though the characters may be familiar, each of your favorite storybook fables is uproariously derailed in this adaptation of Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith’s quintessential children’s book of fractured fairy tales. Everything from “Chicken Little” to “The Gingerbread Man” gets a complete makeover. Fun music and witty narration accompany the likes of ineloquent giants, sassy barnyard animals, colossal cow pies, and enough stinky cheese to go around.

June 9th & June 12th performances will be designated as “Sensory Friendly” shows.

“Sensory Friendly” or “Relaxed” performances are designed to provide a supportive and judgment-free environment for people affected by sensory processing or social skills challenges so they may enjoy the shared experience of live theatre.

With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, David Sedaris has become one of America’s pre-eminent humor writers. He is the master of satire and one of today’s most observant writers addressing the human condition.

The Creative Arts Center’s ballet students will bring this classic fairytale, which has a “don’t judge a book by its cover” moral, to life.

This one-act, 50 min ballet is based on the famous ballet Études, set to the beautiful music of Carl Czerny. Études is considered an homage to classical ballet training and is originally choreographed by Danish dancer and choreographer Harald Lander. It begins with traditional ballet exercises at the barre and ends with spectacular bravura displays. Artistic Director Campbell Midgley set the ballet on Queen City Ballet Company dancers and the upper divisions of the Queen City Ballet Conservatory based on Lander’s most famous choreographic work. This performance is socially distanced, family-friendly, and will run for 50 min without an intermission.
