MCCC Hosts Young Arts Explorers: 'As You Like It'

The Acting Company will present a children's performance of "As You Like It" on Thursday, Feb. 21 at 10:30 a.m. in the Science Center Theater, 340 DeKalb Pike, Blue Bell. Tickets are $5. For more information and to order tickets, visit www.mc3.edu/livelyarts or call 215-641-6518.

The company’s education program — Learning Through Theater — features a student matinee performance of Shakespeare’s “As You Like It.” The response to these programs shows renewed interest in learning, improved grades, and better communication and social skills. The program promotes theater and literacy by bringing a touring repertory of classical productions and exceptional new works, with talented young actors and teaching artists, into communities across America — particularly those where live performance and theater arts education is limited or non-existent. The Acting Company performs each year in over 40 cities to audiences of 70,000 and reaches more than 30,000 students with its arts education programs.
