The workshops are free, but registration is required and lunches will not be provided. Participants can register by visiting byuarts.com/landl/landl.php.

“Mysteries of Monster Grove,” an original play by author Rick Walton based on his popular children’s novel, will be performed in the Nelke Theatre from May 26 to June 12.

“Mysteries of Monster Grove” is an interactive play in which the audience will help solve the mystery by voting at the end of the show. The play tells the story of Amelia whose parents are accountants to some famous and classic monsters like Count Dracula, Frankenstein and the Werewolf.
Things are great in Amelia’s life until the day her father mysteriously vanishes. Amelia sets out to solve the mystery of her father’s disappearance and solve a few other puzzles along the way.
