The Crowder Theatre Department believes in the importance of literacy among today’s youth. Our season’s theme “Bring a Book: Youth Literacy Campaign” lends itself to an opportunity for us to give back within our community. We’ve selected various dates throughout the season where we’re offering free admission to anyone bringing a new children’s book! Free admission will be honored with the donation of a children’s book to the 2pm show on Saturday, June 18. The books will be donated to local children, in the hope that we can inspire reading outside of the classroom.
