A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD
OCT 20 - NOV 7
TUESDAY - FRIDAY
PERFORMANCES AT 10 AM AND NOON

Book and Lyrics by Willie Reale, Music by Robert Reale
Based on the books by Arnold Lobel

Based on Arnold Lobel's well-loved books, and featuring a jazzy, upbeat score by Robert and Willie Reale, this whimsical show follows two great friends - the cheerful, popular Frog and the rather grumpy Toad - through four fun-filled seasons. Waking from hibernation in the Spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding, and learn life lessons along the way.

The two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. A Year with Frog and Toad bubbles with melody and wit, making it an inventive, exuberant, and enchanting musical for the whole family! Don't miss this Tony-nominated Broadway hit full of music, make believe, and charm.

RUN TIME: approximately 60 minutes
Appropriate for all ages
Recommended especially for Kindergarten through 5th Grade

FALL 2026

By Damon Brown
Based on the Oz books by L. Frank Baum

This heartwarming new family adventure reimagines one of Oz’s most beloved characters. Long before he was known as the Cowardly Lion, he was a gentle outsider in a pride that valued strength, dominance, and fearlessness. More interested in books, songs, and friendship than fighting, the young lion is mocked as a coward and forced to leave home in search of what courage really means. Along the journey, he encounters unforgettable friends, hidden dangers, and whispers of great events to come: the rise of the wicked witch, rumors of a dancing scarecrow, a sensitive man made of metal, and the distant approach of a girl from another land.

This bluegrass-infused production blends theatrical inventiveness with folk charm. Filled with humor, adventure, and audience interaction, the show invites you into a world both familiar and entirely new. Don't miss this funny, touching, and imaginative new prequel that reminds audiences of all ages that bravery often wears the gentlest face.
