    Anyone in north county who thinks they need to drive downtown to see good theatre would be wrong. Tate Theatre presents shows that rival anything to be seen in town. On opening night, I witnessed a team of nearly 70 students present this much beloved show on their school stage. The quality of singing, dancing, and acting is a well established tradition at this school, and these students admirably carry that on. This show is certainly recommended for children. I had a 5-year-old sitting with me on opening night who was totally enthralled. And this story of love and acceptance is one that we could all stand to be reminded of today. Totally recommend that this would be the best investment of $10 and two hours that one could make this weekend or next.
