Tonight, at 7:30 pm in the Mendelssohn Theater, you can witness what is probably the most adorable thing to have hit this stage: five one-act plays written by 11-to-15-year olds, all somehow involving a bowl of oatmeal. It’s cohosted by the University Department of English Language and Literature and 826michigan, a nonprofit literacy organization for kids ranging from 6 to 18 years of age. They provide tutoring and writing opportunities for children, and profits from your ticket ($15 for general admission) will benefit these programs. So come! Watch the kids! And bask in the glory of knowing you’re helping them in more ways than one.
