AWT presents from pages to stage, Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse, by Kevin Henkes

Where will your project take place?

AMPhitheater on Mill Pond (The AMP) 202 W Main St. Brighton, MI 48116

Briefly Describe Your Project Idea:

Name of the project is From Page to Stage! The Brighton Arts and Council Commission in Brighton would like to offer a children’s series at the Brighton Amphitheater (The AMP) in the downtown area.

Why does your community need this project?

Brighton hasn’t had a theatre, let alone a children’s theatre program for over 4 years. This play is for the entire family entertaining both children and adults alike! It would be a great way to bring the arts to downtown Brighton.

What do you hope to achieve through this project?

We are hoping that this project and other projects like this will spark more interest in the arts as a whole in downtown Brighton. From live theatre, painting, and art exhibitions. We want to continue to offer opportunities to children, because they will be the ones to keep the arts alive for years to come.
