MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- This spring, Milwaukee's First Stage is set to bring a taste of Jamaica to the Todd Wehr Theater with its production of "Bob Marley's Three Little Birds."

Adapted for the stage by Michael J. Bobbitt, the play is based on a children's book by Cedella Marley, the late reggae icon's daughter, and features music and lyrics by Bob Marley, with additional arrangements by John L. Cornelius, II.

Director Samantha D. Montgomery noted in a press release issued on Monday, April 3 that the play encourages viewers to "enjoy the adventures of life by not allowing our fears to stifle us."

Running from April 21 to May 21 at the Marcus Center's Todd Wehr Theater, located at 929 N. Water St. in downtown Milwaukee, tickets start at $18 and can be purchased in person, by phone at (414) 273-7206 or online at firststage.org.
