Local mother-daughter author duo Arika Parr and Ava Johnson’s picture book comes to the stage in But What Can You Do? from Metro Theater Company. Ava is not so good at cartwheels, and after many attempts - and just as many tumbles – she feels defeated.
With a little encouragement from her family, Ava makes an exciting discovery: Though she may not be able to do some things, she has countless other talents. Ava uses her new-found confidence to help others across St. Louis celebrate all the things they can do!
Now...think about all the things YOU can do!
This story includes themes of positive thinking, growth mindset, co-parenting, music, and more!
But What Can You Do? is best enjoyed by ages 4 and up.
Public performances are scheduled for March 26-30 at the Sun Theater, 3625 Grandel Square.
