MILL HALL – For the second weekend in a row, Millbrook Playhouse will invite audiences of all ages to discover the enchanting world of “Tuck Everlasting: Theatre for Young Audiences Edition,” a press release said.

After opening last week, the show’s two remaining performances will be held at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday in Millbrook’s intimate Poorman Cabaret.

According to the press release, “This captivating production, perfect for the entire family, explores the timeless question: What would you do if you could live forever?”

Based on Natalie Babbitt’s best-selling children’s classic, “Tuck Everlasting” tells the story of 11-year-old Winnie Foster, who longs for adventure beyond her white picket fence. When she becomes entwined with the mysterious Tuck family, she discovers their secret of immortality and must protect them from those who would do anything for eternal life. As her journey unfolds, Winnie faces an extraordinary choice: return to her familiar life or join the Tucks on their infinite path.

Adapted for the stage by Claudia Shear and Tim Federle, with music by Chris Miller and lyrics by Nathan Tysen, this TYA edition is a condensed 70-minute version of the Broadway production.
