The Northern Essex Community College Children’s Theater Class will present three folk tales which have been adapted for the stage, on Saturday, May 4, at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the Chester W. Hawrylciw Theater on the third floor of the Spurk Building.

Admission is free. Donations are gratefully accepted.

The plays are “The Star Bearer”, an Egyptian creation story, adapted by Royal Grant, “Mother Holle,” a fable by the Brothers Grimm and adapted by Robert Mantegani, and “The Chief’s Daughters,” a Native American folktale, adapted by Lissangy Rodriguez.

The running time is approximately 45 minutes. There will be a talk-back period after the 11 a.m. show so that children can interact with the performers and crew.
