The second featured performance at the Lakeville Area Arts Center is Tarzan, a Children's Castle Theater production. The description of the production is as follows: 

"When a human infant is left orphaned in the jungle, he is taken in by a caring mother ape. A boy among gorillas is bound to stand out and Tarzan must fight for acceptance from his tribe. When explorers are spotted in the jungle, the ape-boy is forced to face his toughest challenge yet."
