Jupiter, FL - Bring the whole family to the Maltz Jupiter Theatre on Saturday, February 4, 2012 when the Theatre’s PNC Kids Korner Series presents Aesop’s Fables. Through lively storytelling full of fun and imagination, this is a perfect introduction to some of the world’s most cherished stories and to the magic of live theatre!
The Theatre’s PNC Kids Korner performances are a series of high-quality productions presented throughout the year for children and their families. The 2011/12 series consists of six performances (public performances and student matinees) that will reach more than 3,000 Pre-K and elementary school students from throughout Palm Beach County. The series covers a wide range of social and emotional issues that children experience, with all shows based on children’s story books that come to life on the Theatre’s stage.
Studies have shown that Pre-K students who have been given an example of working out problems through storytelling become better problem solvers and have a greater readiness toward learning and reading in elementary school, said the Theatre’s managing director, Tricia Trimble.
“The PNC Kids Korner Series will cover a wide range of social and emotional issues that children experience, especially when they are very young. When feelings are dealt with through drama, the storyline in a play has a lasting impact on young minds,” Trimble said. “We are so pleased to partner with the PNC Foundation again this year. Through their generosity, hundreds of Pre-K students and their families are able to experience live theatre.”
Produced by Eckerd Theatre Company and sponsored by PNC. Showtime is noon. All tickets are $12, with special group rates available. For tickets, call (561) 575-2223 or visit www.jupitertheatre.org.
