Jonas' world is perfect. Everything is under control and safe. There is no war or fear or pain; there are also no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the community, but when Jonas turns 12, he is chosen for special training from The Giver—to receive and keep the memories of the community. The Giver is the only person who holds the memories of real pain and real joy. Now Jonas will learn the truth about life—and the hypocrisy of his utopian world.

The mission of Lincoln County Theatre is to use the performing arts to foster the creative spirit of our students, nourish our audiences with excellent storytelling, and build character and empathy in every life we touch.
