Please join the Fox Branch Library (175 Massachusetts Avenue) for a performance of Cat Mountain, a Behind the Mask production. Wednesday, July 22, from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Adapted from a book by Francoise Richard and inspired by a Japanese folk tale, this is the story of Sho, a servant girl who journeys to a strange and far-off mountain where she hopes to find her freedom and her lost cat. But to her dismay, the people she meets on the way all tell her that no one has ever returned from Cat Mountain!

Performed solo, the little girl’s special visitor, in the form of a sacred ancestor, tells the tale with an assortment of masks, original music, traditional Japanese songs and theatre-styles. For children entering Kindergarten through 12th grade. Space is limited; please pick up a ticket thirty minutes before the performance.
