The New Bremen Town Musicians this weekend

Friday-Sunday, December 16-18, Yellow Springs Kids Playhouse presents its biannual holiday show – The New Bremen Town Musicians. Based on the Grimm Brothers fairy tale, the production features a mix of adult, teen and youth performers.

In the story, a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster, all past their prime years in life and usefulness on their respective farms, are discarded or mistreated by their masters. One by one they leave their homes and set out together. The New Bremen Town Musicians is a fun family show of music, masks and holiday cheer. At the end of the play the audience is invited to join in a community waltz in celebration of youth, art and the holidays.

Performances take place on December 16th & 17th at 7:30 and December 18th at 2 at the Glen Helen Building, 405 Corry St. in Yellow Springs. For more information or to reserve tickets, call 767-7800 or visit www.yskp.org.
