The Burnaby Arts Council has begun its 19th annual Burnaby Summer Theatre program.
This year's production, Selera and The Temple of Zoom!, is running at locations around Metro Vancouver all summer long.
Students from Studio 58's theatre program will be putting on the children's show, which features Selera, the "girl who can run faster than anything," who sets out on a journey to the Temple of Zoom on the Island of Gorlinga to find a cure for her mother, who has been poisoned by a spider.
Selera must overcome obstacles on her journey, and she makes new friends along the way.
The production, directed by Sean McQuillan, is free. Show times are as follows:
- Every Thursday until Aug. 11, Burnaby Village Museum, at noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m.
