Summer Stock Austin and the Long Center present a new family play, Tortoise & Hare, playing from Sunday, July 26 through Saturday, August 15 in the Rollins Studio Theatre. This new musical was created by Austinites who know a thing or two about entertaining children — Biscuit Brothers’ Allen Robertson and Damon Brown. Tortoise & Hare presents the ultimate culture clash between two tribes and a fantastical race to decide the fate of them all. Musical styles collide in this energetic re-imagining of the ancient fable.
