North Carolina based theatre group Bright Star Touring Theatre will present Black History Hall of Fame, a fast-paced adventure introducing young audiences to Black American heroes.

Tickets are $2 per child with accompanying adults admitted at no charge. Parking is free.
In Black History Hall of Fame, Dr. Daisy and Professor Paisley introduce audiences to more than a dozen ground breakers and hall-of-famers that have largely contributed to shaping our nation’s past, present, and future. You’ll see everyone from Maya Angelou and Aretha Franklin to the Buffalo Soldiers and Mae Jemison, and that’s just to name a few! Young audience volunteers and the talented performers bring this show to life in every way. This production presents a variety of lessons on American History, Social Studies, and Character Education, in addition to supporting Standards in Reading: Literature, Informational Texts and Foundational Skills, Speaking and Listening and Language.
