In conjunction with Fort Bend County Libraries’ Summer Reading Challenge, the Cinco Ranch Branch Library will host a family-friendly production of “Chicken Big,” a children’s theater performance, on Wednesday, July 10, at 2 p.m. in the Meeting Room of the library, 2620 Commercial Center Blvd in Katy. The performance will be repeated at 3 p.m. In this quirky revision of the classic “Chicken Little” story, based on based on a children’s book written by Keith Graves and adapted to the stage as a one-act musical by Books Alive, a very small hen lays a big, giant egg. Out of this egg came one big, humongous . . . something. No matter how hard they try, these clueless chickens can’t make sense of the gigantic new member of their family -- until he saves the day.

Recommended for children in grades 1-5, this performance is made possible by the Friends of the Cinco Ranch Branch Library. The performance is free and open to the public. For more information, see the Fort Bend County Libraries website fortbend.lib.tx.us
