'Teddy Roosevelt and the Treasure of Ursa Major' at OWC
The Kennedy Center Theater for Young Audience’s national tour of “Teddy Roosevelt and the Treasure of Ursa Major” will appear at the Mattie Kelly Fine and Performing Arts Center at Okaloosa-Walton College on Thursday, Jan. 17 for two performances at 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
Co-sponsored by the White House Historical Association, the Kennedy Center production imagines stories about the children of our nation’s Presidents—beginning with this exciting new musical inspired by Theodore Roosevelt and his family.
The production is recommended for ages 9 and up, but promises to be a delightful experience for adults and older students as well.
This clever and comical production features songs by Washington satirist Mark Russell, whose PBS specials have led TV Guide to call him “the funniest man on television.” All tickets are $6 each for either children or adults.
The early performance is for school groups only and is currently sold-out. The special repeat performance at 11:30 a.m. is open to the general public and to other groups.
Tickets for the 11:30 a.m. performance are available now on the OWC arts website at www.owc.edu/arts and from the box office by phone at (850) 729-6000 or in-person. The box office is closed Dec.r 19 to Jan. 1, but Web sales are open over the holiday break. Group sales are only available in person or by phone.
