Fairytales are a rich source of material for children’s theater. One of the most familiar is Hans Christian Anderson’s The Ugly Duckling, whose moral — that what appears homely on the outside can hold incredible beauty on the inside — appeals to parents and children alike. And it’s a good antidote to the message, pushed by modern media and prominent figures like Donald Trump, that only beauty counts and difference is something to be shamed, ridiculed and attacked.

The Akron Civic Theatre will present a staged version of the fable. Adult tickets are $10; kids 3-12 are $5. Children under 2 are free.
