Jackie Robinson

Presented by Bright Star Children's Theatre

This baseball star played an important role in integrating professional sports. His story is brought to life in a production that is heartwarming, lively and interactive. Young audiences join Jackie as he learns valuable lessons from his mother, then cheer him on as he scores his first home run as a professional baseball player. Participation continues as volunteers join Jackie onstage to help him overcome bullying without fighting back. The Jackie Robinson story is the perfect compliment to Black History celebration and inspires young people to do what is right, follow their dreams and never give up.
