July 9 —
2:30 (ages 7-12) — Children’s Education Theater presents
“The Ugly Bug Ball.”
Long ago and far away in an ancient land there lived a
bug named BUG ELLA. She lived with her 2 very ugly stepsisters,
Centipede and Millipede and a very wicked step mother, Lady Tarantula.
Every day BUG ELLA was forced to do chores while her two ugly
stepsisters teased her and called her names. Meanwhile, across town in
the bug castle, Bug King Bo Weevil determines that his son, Prince
Firefly should find a suitable bride and provide him with a required
number of grandchildren. So, the King invites every eligible maiden
bug in the kingdom to the Ugly Bug Ball, where his son will be able to
choose his bride. Accompanied with several bug funny songs, beautiful
scenery and a little magic provided by BUG ELLA’s fairy godmother, BUG
ELLA changes from being an ugly bug to a beautiful butterfly.
