CovCath, NDA to perform ‘Tuck Everlasting’ this weekend; Newport Central Catholic honors veterans


Covington Catholic High School and Notre Dame Academy join forces the weekend of April 12, 13 and 14 to perform “Tuck Everlasting” at Notre Dame’s Frances K. Carlisle Performing Arts Center.

Eleven-year-old Winnie Foster yearns for a life of adventure beyond her white picket fence, but not until she becomes unexpectedly entwined with the Tuck Family does she get more than she could have imagined.

When Winnie learns of the magic behind the Tuck’s unending youth, she must fight to protect their secret from those who would do anything for a chance at eternal life.

As her adventure unfolds, Winnie faces an extraordinary choice: return to her life or continue with the Tucks on their infinite journey. Based on best-selling children’s classic by Natalie Babbitt and adapted for the stage by Claudia Shear and Tim Federle, Tuck Everlasting features a soaring score from Chris Miller and Nathan Tysen. 

Showtimes are 7 p.m. Friday, April 12; 7 p.m. Saturday, April 13; and 2 p.m. Sunday, April 14. Tickets can be purchased in advance through the Notre Dame website (ndapandas.org) or, based upon availability, on-site at the NDA Box Office 30 minutes prior to showtime.

Founded in 1925 and located on a (30-acre) campus in Park Hills, Covington Catholic High School is a 2016 Blue Ribbon of Excellence award-winning college preparatory high school that operates within the Catholic Diocese of Covington.
