Greenbrier Valley Theatre Youth Education Program Showcases start on Tuesday, March 10 at 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. with the GVTots’ Fairy Tales and More! These young students have been meeting once a week since January and are ready to show us all the hard work they’ve done.
“This is an incredible opportunity to see the skills these students have gained this semester, while putting on an entertaining show for their friends and families,” Teaching Artist Madison Withrow said.
Through song and storytelling, the GVTots will show off everything that they have been working on for the past few weeks. Each child will get a chance to shine as they recite classic fairy tales and favorite stories, using skills the Education Program is committed to nurturing in every student.
The theatre is located at 1038 Washington St. East Lewisburg, WV 24901. Tickets are $12 for general admission and $10 for children/seniors (60+). For tickets or more information, call GVT’s Box Office at 304-645-3838 or visit www.gvtheatre.org.
This program is presented with financial assistance from the West Virginia Division of Culture & History, and the National Endowment for the Arts, with approval from the West Virginia Commission on the Arts.
