THE RAINBOW FISH OPENS FAMILY THEATRE SERIES

Darke County Center for the Arts will present ArtsPower National Touring Theatre’s production of The Rainbow Fish on Sunday, November 14 at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville. This Family Theatre Series presentation is especially appropriate for youngsters age 4 through 8, but according to DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins the musical will appeal to all ages. The show begins at 2 p.m.

“ArtsPower’s adaptation of Marcus Pfister’s classic children’s book is a joyful celebration of unselfish friendship,” Mr. Rawlins stated. “Adults will be delighted with the clever dialogue and the lilting score, while youngsters will be totally charmed by the beautiful re-telling of one of their favorite stories,” he said. According to Rawlins, the show about the beautiful fish with shimmering scales gently reinforces the value of discovering one’s inner beauty as a path to true happiness.

DCCA’s Family Theatre Series is sponsored by Midmark Corporation, Second National Bank, HOPE Foundation, Greenville Federal, DP&L Company Foundation, The Andersons, Gordon Orthodontics, Edison Community College, Wayne Hospital, Greenville Rotary Club, Jordan Insurance Agency, Criterion Club, Dan and Marty Schipfer. DCCA also receives support from Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial, Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund, and Ketrow Foundation. In addition, the Ohio Arts Council helps fund Darke County Center for the Arts with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence, and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans.

Tickets for the show are $5 and may be reserved by contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or dcca@centerforarts.net, or purchased at DCCA’s office at Greenville Public Library or Readmore’s Hallmark in Greenville as well as at the Worch Memorial Library in Versailles.
