The Disney adaptation of Tarzan is being staged by the J*Company Youth Theatre at David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre in La Jolla.

This performance will include the music from the Disney film, and runs from May 9-18.
And lastly -- based on the character most often adapted to theatre, film, and tv, and one whose stories have been read by young and old alike -- The Coronado Playhouse is currently staging Sherlock Holmes: the Final Adventure. It plays Thursdays-Sundays between April 11-May 18.
