The Arts at Millersville University will present "The Vanishing Elephant" on Saturday, March 29, at 1 p.m. at the Winter Visual and Performing Arts Center, 60 W. Cottage Ave., Millersville. The event is part of the Family Fun Fest series.

In "The Vanishing Elephant," Opu, a young boy in Bengal, dreams of one day becoming an elephant trainer. When he befriends Janu, an Asian elephant, their friendship is the first step on an adventure that spans decades and continents. On their separate paths, they face many challenges, including fearsome encounters, stormy seas, and strange new worlds. Years in the future, Opu, now an old man, hears that world-famous magician Harry Houdini will vanish an elephant live on stage in New York City. Opu seeks to find out if the elephant is Janu. The show is presented by Cahoots NI from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Free children's activities will be available in the lobby an hour before showtime. Community organizations and Millersville University student groups will host tables offering children's crafts and activities that are inspired by the performance. Children will leave with goodie bags filled with their creations.
