Stage Production of My Father's Dragon has been Canceled

The stage production of My Father’s Dragon, scheduled for 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 14, on SIUE’s Dunham Hall mainstage, has been canceled because of an impending inclement weather forecast.

Audience members who have already purchased tickets are entitled to a refund by calling the SIUE Fine Arts Box Office, (618) 650-2774.

As an alternative, the SIUE Friends of Theater and Dance (FOTAD), sponsor of the event, will honor any Jan. 14 tickets at one of two productions of Pinnochio.

Pinocchio will be performed by the Curtains Up Theatre Co. of Edwardsville-Collinsville for two showings at Dunham Hall:
2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Saturday, March 18

These shows are part of A Season for the Child--the annual family-oriented live theater season sponsored by FOTAD for its scholarship fund.
