Special Events Disney’s 101 Dalmatians KIDS
The talented youth of the community present a musical production that will leave the audience begging for more! ‘101 Dalmatians Kids’ is the familiar tale of kidnappers, puppies and villains. In a loving home in the city of London, human owners Robert and Anita live happily with Dalmatian parents Pongo and Perdita as they raise their Dalmatian puppies. Everything is quiet until the monstrous Cruella De Vil plots to steal the puppies for her new fur coat! All the dogs of London unite to daringly rescue the puppies from Cruella and her bumbling henchmen.

The Emperor’s New Clothes This musical production featuring young talent from the community transports the audience to the kingdom of Glump, which has been taxed to abstraction ever since their emperor became a pampered clothes horse with a lack of taste. While the emperor and his family are busy mismatching their wardrobe, the rest of the kingdom is in a shambles. Enter two con artists who devise an ingenious plan for fleecing the emperor. Their pitch: a magic cloth that appears invisible to people unworthy of their position. Naturally, everyone chooses to ‘see’ the magic cloth, until the innocent candor of a child ‘reveals all.’ The emperor is shamed into reforming his leadership role in society, and his spoiled daughters learn a valuable lesson in humility. Tickets available beginning June 24 at Prisco Community Center or online at www.seatyourself.biz/ foxvalleyparkdistrict. (KD)

Whoever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy.
