What's Happening -- Pollyanna Theatre's Peter & the Piper w/Giveaway (CLOSED)

They're back...My favorite Austin children's theatre company, Pollyanna Theatre, is returning July 14-20 for their summer show.

Look how fun....

The play picks up the classic Pied Piper story at the moment when the Piper realizes he is not going to be paid for ridding Hamlin of their epic rat problem. Determined to make good on every word in the contract, The Piper plans to lure away Hamlin's children. But Peter doesn't like the Piper's music and is suspicious of this adult's motives. When no one will listen to his concerns, Peter begins to worry about how his friends all think he is "lame". When he discovers the one rat left behind from the Piper's first visit to Hamlin, Peter discovers the plan necessary to save the day.Playwright Holly Hepp-Galvan turns this classic tale on its ear and redefines what it is in today's world to be "lame". It also asks the question, ‘how can we tell who our real friends are?’ While the Piper does not play a pipe, he uses fun raps and a hip hop beat. And yet again Pollyanna wants to make sure that my readers have a chance to see the show so I have a GC for four tickets -- yay! I want to make sure you can see it, I am making it a super easy. Just leave me a comment before midnight on Thursday, July 10th and let me know you'd like to go. I'll pick one winner randomly and contact you via email.
