Summer Reading Program continues with the magical interactive folklore and multicultural story-based plays of "We Tell Stories." Children are chosen from the audience to dress up and participate in the plays. The performances of "We Tell Stories" will take place every Wednesday at 2pm (with the exception of the July 4th holiday) from June 27th through August 8th. The July 25th program is entitled "Work Dreams" and features tales of work from various cultures. The plays which will be performed are: the African American tall tale of a legendary hero, "John Henry"; another African American story: "The Frog Who Wanted to Sing"; and a folktale from Japan, "The Two Stonecutters." Performances are made possible in part by the Culver City Performing Arts Grant Program with support from Sony Pictures Entertainment. There is no registration required to attend the programs.
