TUCK EVERLASTING, the new musical based on Natalie Babbitt's beloved best-selling novel of the same name, just welcomed a very special guest- the author of the book, Natalie Babbitt.

At the beginning of "Tuck Everlasting," the film's narrator, Elisabeth Shue, notes that for some people, an hour is like an eternity, and that seems to apply to the movie itself.

Performances of “Tuck Everlasting” will be at Howard High School, 8700 Old Annapolis Road in Ellicott City, at 7 p.m. on March 15 and at 2 and 7 p.m. on March 16.
