Honk! tells the story of the Ugly Duckling   04/24/13 - 12:01am

Mickey Lubeck has wanted to stage the musical Honk!, a retelling of the Hans Christian Andersen tale of The Ugly Duckling, for several years but she always received a negative response from her students at the Musical Theatre Workshops. They thought the show was just for little kids.

“I tried to get across to them it’s a story that the little bitty ones as well as adults will enjoy,” said Lubeck, who swayed her students in her direction. Honk! will be presented at 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday, April 27, at Greenbrier High School.
