ArtsPower To Bring JIGSAW JONES To Life At Adelphi

ArtsPower will bring popular children's mystery book Jigsaw Jones and the Case of the Class Clown to life at Adelphi's Performing Art's Center (PAC) on Saturday, November 3.

A national touring company, ArtsPower has been bringing musical and drama productions to children since 1985. Their production of Jigsaw Jones and the Case of the Class Clown, based on the book by author James Preller, will tell the story of Jigsaw (Theodore) Jones and his friend Mila who try to catch the practical joker loose in Ms. Gleason's class -- Athena Lorenzo has been slimed and she doesn't think it's very funny!

The show, brimming with music, charm, and humor, is geared towards children in grades K-4 and their families.

The show will begin at 2 p.m. on the Westermann Stage in the Concert Hall at the PAC.

Tickets are $20, with discounts available to seniors, students and alumni. Information is available at the Lucia and Steven N. Fischer Box Office at 516.877.4000 or boxoffice@adelphi.edu. Regular box office hours are Tuesday through Friday from 1-6 p.m. The box office is also open two hours before most scheduled performances. Ticket sales and additional information are also available online.

Adelphi's PAC is one of Long Island's premier cultural arts venues for entertainment of all kinds. See more about other upcoming Adelphi PAC offerings at pac.adelphi.edu.
