along as a shipload of salty sea dogs in search of buried gold
sail to the Greek isles, find a spirit named Aesop, and a treasure they
hadn't expected! Along the way, meet a cavalcade of characters that
include an over-blown frog, a very confused donkey, and two slightly
weird sisters--all the while singing Pirate Songs and ditties that will
get kids of all ages dancing in their seats! <span style="font-size:12pt"></span></p>

TCT is a Cleveland-based company that develops and produces highly imaginative,
original, collaborative and interactive professional works for children that
also stimulate creative growth in its artists. At any time, these pieces may
involve acting, dance, music, puppetry, tumbling, drumming, and numerous other
artistic disciplines as imagined by the artistic teams working with and for
TCT, and are open to all creative possibility. TCT opens its 2014 season with <i>Aesop's Pirate Adventure</i>, April 5th through 27th. TCT's aim is to bring theatre to the community in its
fullest form providing excitement, growth and joy for all who are involved in
and/or touched by its work.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6pt;line-height:normal"><span>TCT strives to reach across
socio-economic, cultural and traditional boundaries to help awaken and bring
better understanding by opening eyes, ears, hearts and imaginations in the
young people (and artists) of Cleveland and its surrounds.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span>TCT creates work that remembers that
