Children's Theatre Production of The Lamp is the Moon

Friday, April 26, 2019 at 7:00 p.m. ~ Genesee Community College

Batavia, NY (04/03/2019) — What: Children's Theatre Production of The Lamp is the Moon

When: Friday, April 26, 2019 at 7:00 p.m.

Where: Genesee Community College, Stuart Steiner Theatre

Batavia Campus, One College Road, Batavia NY 1420

Who: All are invited and welcome!

Background: On Friday, April 26, 2019 at 7:00 p.m. GCC's Forum Players will present the Children's Theatre production, "The Lamp is the Moon," written by Kirk Lynn.

"The Lamp is the Moon" introduces Shawn, a bright young girl with a head full of science and imagination, which makes naptimes particularly difficult. Her friend, Lamp, triggers a wide-awake adventure with the dream of learning to fly and becoming the moon. With the guidance of the audience, this voyage is fit for mission control as Shawn and her lamp escape naptime and blast into space. "I don't like to nap, but I do like to dream," Shawn says.

This show debuted at the Seattle Children's Theatre in the spring of 2018 and is entertainment for all ages.

Tickets for these shows in the Stuart Steiner Theatre are $8 for adults, and $5 for seniors (55+) and students (16+) and GCC faculty/ staff. GCC students with ID are $3, and GCC alumni with ID will receive a $2 discount on an adult ticket. To reserve seats, contact the GCC box office at boxoffice@genesee.edu or (585) 345-6814.
