“This is always an outstanding production that area children love, and it’s a wonderful performance experience for our students,” Dr. Devin Stephenson, Three Rivers president, said.

The musical is under the direction of college vocal music instructor Cindy White and instrumental music instructor Buddy White.

Three Rivers also announced that persons who had already purchased tickets for the Friday evening public performance may contact the college music department at 573-840-9639 to arrange a refund.
