At Soyuzivka: August 11

KERHONKSON, N.Y. - Guests at Soyuzivka, the Ukrainian National Association's upstate New York resort, will have the opportunity on Saturday, August 11, to attend a special presentation of the operetta "The Brave Rooster," an original fairy tale written by Natalia Zabila and set to music by composer Bohdan Yaniwsky.

This operetta from Lviv is presented by the Ukrainian Educational and Cultural Center of Philadelphia. It is geared to the young and the young at heart, and the cast includes two dozen young Philadelphia-area actors between the ages of 3 and 18.

The director of the operetta is Ivan Prasko; the assistant director is Katria Oransky-Petyk. The presentation features choreography by Taras Lewyckyj.
