The four-day Children's Hilltop Festivalpresents a quartet of plays that are entertaining, educational and, best of all, free. Asian Treasuresis an anthology of magical tales in which humans interact with mischievous monkeys, beautiful birds and cunning tigers. Kian Long, Texas Pioneertells the story of a slave who accompanied white settler Jane Long to Texas in the 1820s, with both seeing the early history of the region unfold before their eyes. And Three Billy Goats Gruffis the popular fairy tale about a trio of hollow-horned mammals trying to get across the bridge who get stopped by a grumpy troll. Rounding out the festival is a musical adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic Alice in Wonderland. 11 a.m. Tuesday through Friday. Miller Outdoor Theatre, 100 Concert Drive.
