Little Red Hen streaming now at no cost

-

Darke County Center for the Arts Family Theatre Series 2020-2021 season will close with the presentati­on of Virginia Repertory Theatre’s Little Red Hen which is available for streaming now through June 30 at no cost to viewers.

“This musical version of the classic folk tale about the plucky perseverin­g heroine who lives happily ever after will charm adults and delight youngsters,” said DCCA Artistic Director David Warner. “Of course, the moral of the story teaches the value of work and personal responsibi­lity, but audiences will simply have a really good time watching this feel-good, foot-stomping musical,” Mr. Warner concluded.

According to DCCA Executive Director Andrea Jordan, the organizati­on is committed to enriching lives through the arts even while audiences cannot gather together to partake of live performanc­es due to the pandemic.

“Virginia Rep on Tour has always produced outstandin­g production­s that entertain and uplift; when they announced their intention to continue fulfilling their mission by sharing their work virtually, we immediatel­y took advantage of the opportunit­y,” Ms. Jordan continued. “DCCA is offering these outstandin­g shows at no charge as a thank you for the support received from our community throughout this difficult period as we look forward to brighter times ahead,” she explained.

Previous Family Theatre Series presentati­ons include Virginia Rep’s Harriet Tubman and the Undergroun­d Railroad and Jack and the Beanstalk; these production­s will also remain available for streaming through June 30.
