McLean Kids Performance Series Continues with MADELINE AND THE BAD HAT, 4/16

By:

The Alden Theatre's McLean Kids Performance Series returns with a performance of ArtsPower's Madeline and the Bad Hat at 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 16. Tickets are $12, $8 for McLean tax district residents. The theatre is located at 1234 Ingleside Avenue.

Madeline and the Bad Hat, an original musical based upon the much-loved book, captures the blithe yet touching spirit of Ludwig Bemelmans's Madeline series. It traces the adventures of a young Parisian girl who, despite starting off on the wrong foot with a mischievous new neighbor, eventually learns that first impressions aren't everything. The hour-long show is appropriate for children age four and older.

Tickets are on sale now! To purchase tickets, contact OvationTix by phone (1-866-811-4111), or purchase them in person, online (http://www.mcleancenter.org/alden/mcleankids.asp) or by fax (703-893-9334) through the Alden Theatre.
