But with the help of Trillium’s guide, Professor Merryweather, students and adults alike will easily see how the elements of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water work together to not only create weather phenomena like hurricanes and volcanoes, but also how they connect with our bodies and our planet to create the perfect conditions for nurturing and sustaining life. “Weathering the Elements” will be performed May 19 and 20 at 7:30 p.m. at the historic Lewis Theatre on Court Street North in Lewisburg. This performance is about 45 minutes. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students, children 6 and under are free. Tickets may be purchased online at trilliumperformingarts.org, at the office at the Lewis Theatre or at the door. For more information call the Trillium office at 304-645-3003.
