The popular Stories Under the Stars program returns to Kannapolis in 2023! Get ready for another series of unique storytelling and performing arts events.
All events are free and will begin at 7 p.m. at the Kannapolis Library. Programs are geared toward families with children of all ages and do not require advance registration.
Join us as we kick off the Stories Under the Stars series with The Children’s Theater of Charlotte on April 29. The Children’s Theater of Charlotte will perform, “A Sick Day for Amos McGee”, by Philip C. Stead.
In “A Sick Day for Amos McGee”, friends come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. This heart-warming story about the joys of friendship introduces a zookeeper, Amos McGee, who knows friends can come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and species, too. Every day, Amos visits his animal friends at the zoo, runs races with the tortoise, cares for a particularly shy penguin, and reads stories to an owl. One day, Amos is too sick to visit his zoo friends, but, fortunately, the animals know just what to do.
The Children’s Theater of Charlotte has been delighting audiences for 75 years with its wonderful performances for children of all ages. Each year their productions are enjoyed by thousands of people in the Charlotte region.
