Lexington Children’s Theatre will present three different shows in April, including the 10th annual Celebrity Curtain Call event. The Celebrity Curtain Call features a cast of local celebrities who this year will perform “The Little Mermaid.” Tickets to this fund-raising event include unlimited food as well as two drink tickets and two bourbon tasting tickets. A live and silent auction prizes include trips to New York, the Bahamas and more. The event is Saturday, April 14 at 6:30 p.m. at LCT’s Main Stage. Tickets are $85 individually or $510 per table.

The next day, LCT will stage Roald Dahl’s “James and the Giant Peach Jr.” James Henry Trotter was a sad, lonely boy until one day, a stranger appeared, brewed a potion and a giant peach started growing in his backyard.

On the last weekend of April, LCT will stage “Why Mosquitoes Buzz,” a colorful, puppet-filled show based on an African folktale that explains how mosquitoes have become so annoying.
