Theatre students from Lee University will perform Sherrill S. Cannon’s “Have You Seen My Little Lamb?,” designed for preschool audiences, ages 2-5 on Saturday, April 30 at 9:30 and 10:30 a.m. in the Buzz Oates Black Box Theater in Lee’s Communication Arts Building.

The show will be directed by Christine Williams, associate professor of theatre, with Catherine Mantooth, senior lecturer in theatre, serving as technical director. 

"Preschool theatre is an emerging field among professional theaters around the world,” said Ms.
Williams. “Theatre companies are interested in helping to spark interest in theatre from a young age. We are excited to offer a theatrical performance to our youngest community members. It is a place where they can learn to enjoy the magic of theatre but also a place where we will embrace their special excitement and energy.”

Lee students Megan Kinney, Cody Glover, and Andie Phillips will perform in the show, which will last about 20 minutes and feature the character of Mary searching for her little lamb, interacting with other nursery rhyme characters along the way. According to Ms. Williams, young audiences will be invited to interact and sing along with the performers.

This is a free, non-ticketed event and open to the public. The shows are funded in part by the Allied Arts Council of Cleveland/Bradley County.
