Young Elya Yelnats is accused of stealing a pair of cleats from a major league baseball player and sent to Camp Green Lake, a dry lake bead in the middle of the dessert. The secretive and mysterious Warden has each inmate spend everyday digging one hole to "build character." But when an artifact from the famous "Kissing-Kate Barlow" is found in a hole, the Warden forces the boys to work double-time, leading Stanley to deduce they're digging because the Warden is looking for something.

Children's Center for the Arts - Schedule B
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe, she had so many children she didn't know... how to get them to sleep! Wee Willy Winkie is not ready for bed. So with the help of his brothers and sisters (the children in the audience) he devises a plan to stay up late. Willy, Mary Contrary and the other children incorporate finger play, pantomime, sound effects, dance and dialogue in this clever retelling of the rhymes of Mother Goose.

Burg Theatre - Schedule A
Viva Coyote! Based on traditional folklore from Mexico and the American Southwest, these whimsical and vibrantly colorful tales sprinkled with Spanish language dialogue dramatize the adventures of Senor Coyote, a mischief maker of legendary proportions with an appetite to match. Coyote, the trickster, tries to outwit El Sol, (the sun), appease El Sol's love, La Luna (the moon) and chase his next meail (Dog, Fox, Rabbit, Chicken, Prairie Dog or Raccoon) all of whom conspire to rid the desert of the pesky "Senor Yip Yip."
