Area residents are invited to attend an original Center Stage production of The Escapades of Denston Thomas, written by the daughter of the founders (Heidi and Jay St. John) of the Firmly Planted Family Homeschool Resource Center and FPHRC graduate, Summer St. John.

The production is designed to be fun for the whole family featuring pirates, a villain, hero and treasure.
