"Heads and Tales"

Join the Weatherford College Touring Theatre Troupe Sept. 29 through Oct. 1 for “Heads and Tales” in the Alkek Fine Arts Center. Showtimes for the production are 7:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 29; 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 30; and 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 1. Admission is free, and doors open a half hour before the show.

Written by Carol Lauck, the production is set inside an elementary school library where the whimsical and energetic Professor and his assistants guide 10-year-old T.J. through comical adventures to free his imagination. “Do you know there are people who never use imagination,” asks the Professor. “Sad, but true,” he laments. “Almost as sad as people not using smiles.”

Through a variety of adventures in dance exercises, story creation and silliness, T.J. measures up well and earns his Free Imagination pom-pom without the aid of computer assistance. This production is geared toward young children and runs about one hour. The cast and crew will take the show to area elementary schools following their WC debut.
