The ‘Fun Folk of Millbrook’

 

are at it again! A ‘terra’ific’ time for everyone will be held during the March Break, March 13th, 14th, 16th, 17th & 18th 2010.

Admission $5 – W/C Access and Free Refreshments

 

Some of the warming, hilarious stories by renown

children’s author, Robert Munsch (with his gracious

permission) will be brought to life at the

Cavan/Monaghan Municipal Offices in Millbrook.

 

‘The Paper Bag Princess’ along with a lively

dragon is just one of the stories that will be performed.

 

Last March Break we presented ‘The Sleeping

Beauty’ which was very successful, enabling us to

donate $750 to The Old Millbrook School Family

Centre.

 

Our production this year will again

involve audience participation with songs, jokes and

environmental segments. Here and there we will chat

about some of the sad realities that are happening

to our world, which is our home; and how we can all

help to change this.
