Join Mill Mountain Theatre for our FREE summer touring production of "Tomás and the Library Lady," brought to you by our 2021 Apprentice Company! Performing in the Downtown Market Square on Wednesday, June 2nd and Wednesday, June 9th @ 10am, and touring the Roanoke valley.
Adapted from the beloved book by the same name, this charming bilingual play with music follows the story of Tomás Rivera, the son of an immigrant farmworker, as he discovers a surprising world of possibility inside his local library, thanks to a special librarian. This inspirational, theatrical biography proves that reading and respect can make anything possible. MMT will perform this free production across the valley to delight families and will distribute free books to student audience members as part of our initiative connecting theatre to literacy.
