‘Mac & Alice!’
Murfreesboro Little Theater stages children’s versions of two classics this weekend with “Mac & Alice!”

“Mac” is a farce of William Shakespeare’s “Macbeth.” It combines the comedic stylings of Monty Python and Mel Brooks with this beloved tragedy - giving a new life to this classic English play.

The second play in the lineup is “Alice,” a children’s version of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland.”

“Mac & Alice!” runs at  7 p.m. Friday and Saturday with a 2 p.m. Sunday matinee.

Murfreesboro Little Theater is located at 702 Ewing Ave., in Murfreesboro. For more information or tickets, call 615-893-9825 or visit MLTarts.com.
