Tonya the Tortoise has a lot going for her, but speed is not among them.
So when Harriet the Hare — now that's a speedster! — challenges her to a race, Tonya's friends are set for a let-down.
So who wins the race?
We won't spoil the ending of the Tucson Symphony Orchestra's Just for Kids concert "The Tortoise and the Hare." But you can see it for yourself on Saturday when the Wind Quintet performs a trio of fables.
Performances are at 10 and 11:15 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 25, at the Tucson Symphony Center, 2175 N. Sixth Ave., just south of Grant Road. Admission is $3 per person at the door.

Performances are interactive — kids are encouraged to laugh, applaud and answer questions posed by the musicians — and they run 45 to 50 minutes. TSO ensembles perform classical music set to fairytales, many of them written by the musicians themselves.
