Summer Children's Theatre reveals
titles for this year's productions


The ASU Theatre has announced the season of plays for the 2003 ASU Summer Children's Theatre at Arkansas State University. This 8th annual event will feature two plays based on popular tales of Beatrix Potter and Brothers Grimm. 

Opening the season will be "Peter Rabbit and Me" by Aurand Harris. This delightfully joyous dramatization of Beatrix Potter's beloved "Tale of Peter Rabbit," is filled with humor, adventure, colorful characters and all the magic of children's theatre. 

The performance dates for "Peter Rabbit and Me " are Tuesday through Thursday, June 17-19, at 10 a.m. and Friday, June 20, at 10 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. 

The second production of the season, "The Brave Little Tailor," is an enchanting version of the Grimm fairy tale that proves that one does not have to be big to be strong! Two silly ogres take on the little tailor with hilarious results and a very happy ending. 

The Brave Little Tailor will be performed on Tuesday through Thursday, July 22-24, at 10 a.m. and Friday, July 25, at 10 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. 

The ASU Summer Children's Theatre performances are presented at Fowler Center on the ASU campus. Tickets may be purchased at the ASU Central Box Office in the Convocation Center for $3.50, by calling 972-ASU1, or online at tickets.astate.edu, or at the door on the day of the performance. Advanced reservations are recommended. Please arrive early; latecomers will not be seated.
