Schoolhouse Rock Live! comes to Marathon Center

Based on the pop culture phenomenon, "Schoolhouse Rock Live!" will take the stage of the Marathon Center for the Performing Arts as part of the center's Family Series. The performance will be at 2 p.m. Feb. 20, at the Marathon Center, 200 W. Main Cross St. The Family Series is sponsored by Great Scot Community Markets. The classic Saturday morning cartoon series from the 70s has been updated for the stage, with imaginative image projections and a rock 'n' roll feel. Songs have been updated for a new generation, including megahits like "Conjunction Junction," "Just a Bill," "Interplanet Janet" or "Three is a Magic Number." Tom, a nervous young man on his first day of being a schoolteacher, turns on the television and is visited by three aspects of his personality who remind him how learning can be fun. The show is recommended for ages 6 and older. Tickets are on sale now.
