Description:

The National Theatre Corporation invites you and your children to continue celebrating the 40th Anniversary Season of Saturday Morning Live! At The National by tuning in for our third series of free virtual programs. The next three shows are brought to you by Northwestern University's Imagine U and will premiere on Facebook Live on Saturday's at 9:30 AM.  Imagine U sparks imaginations, creates fun, builds community, and strengthens families with their outstanding productions.

LIFE NOW features original content designed for young viewers and families to explore new ideas and simply have fun together! Created by a company of artists with roots in theatre for young audiences, each episode is a mix of music, movement, crafts, and storytelling. This programming is best suited for children 4-10 years, but siblings and friends of other ages are always welcome to participate in the fun. Please join us!

Episode 3: Join Alvin and the storytellers as they explore different types of stories in What’s Your Story? Together we’ll dance with family, cook a delicious dish, explore the excitement of birthdays, and use music to climb a mountain. We’ll also take a journey with a beloved hat, and learn how to build a blank book ready to fill with new stories. Special guests include storyteller E. Patrick Johnson who shares why it’s important to lead your life with joy.
