The Fine Arts Association’s Yarnell Youth Theatre Company presents “Winnie-the-Pooh” in the Corning Auditorium beginning Friday, February 16 at 7:30 p.m.

“Winnie-the-Pooh” is a delightful musical production that combines several stories by A.A. Milne about this silly, lovable bear and his friends.  Milne wrote the stories for his son Christopher Robin Milne, basing the characters on his son’s stuffed animals.

Directed by Justin Steck, this fun and heartwarming production features 12 young actors between the ages of 10 -16 who bring to life Christopher Robin, Winnie-the-Pooh, the dismal Eeyore, Piglet, Kanga, Baby Roo, Owl, Rabbit and other forest friends. The production is rated G.

Performances will be held on Fridays, February 16 and 23, and March 2 at 7:30 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays, February 17, 18, 24 and 25, and March 3 and 4 at 2:00 p.m.
