The NAACP Theatre Awards has revealed the honorees for the 30th Annual Awards Ceremony, taking place on June 3rd in Los Angeles.

24th Street Theatre's world premiere production of Rapunzel Alone, presented in association with the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, returns to the 24th Street venue April 9 through May 1 following a two-weekend run at The Wallis. To increase audience accessibility, all performances feature Spanish supertitles.

Lettie is a city girl and London is her home. But when the war comes to her doorstep, for her safety, Lettie is sent to the country with over 600,000 other children. But it's not as nice as she'd been promised. For the next year, Lettie spends her lonely, monotonous days on an isolated farm wishing she was anywhere else but there.

The Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts presents the 24th Street Theatre world premiere production of RAPUNZEL ALONE, a sophisticated reimagining of a classic fairy tale geared for adults and children (ages 7+) alike in seven performances from Saturday, March 12 through Saturday, March 19, 2022, in The Wallis' Lovelace Studio Theater.

Loosely inspired by the famous children's story, Rapunzel Alone centers on Lettie, a young mixed-race girl from London who is sent to the countryside for her own safety during the daily bombings of World War II. On an isolated country farm, she faces her own battles with a strict new guardian and a very “fowl” goose.
