Wichita Children’s Theatre
The Professional Touring Company is pleased to bring the art and education of live theatre to Logan, KS in two shows geared for children Pre-K through 2nd Grades, and 3rd through 6th Grades.
Get ready for a musical experience, ripped from the pages of Mo Willems’ beloved, award-winning, best-selling children’s books, Elephant & Piggie!
An elephant, named Gerald, and a pig, named Piggie, are the “bestus” (a word Gerald and Piggie made up that means “very best”) friends, but Gerald worries that something could go wrong that would end their friendship. Piggie is not worried at all. She’s even happier and more excited than usual. That’s because she and Gerald are invited to a party hosted by the Squirrelles, singing squirrels who love to have a good time.
And so, begins a day when anything is possible.
A fast-paced hilarious audience participation melodrama, written by Tom Frye, that will have your young audiences cheering the Hero and booing the Villain for sure!
Our sweet new school teacher is perplexed by the children of Smartypants, Kansas. She’s never dealt with children like Rocky Boulder and the Tinselteena twins. Education will be turned upside down until she wins over her students with good old-fashioned teaching techniques… outsmarting the kids. To make things worse, her home will be foreclosed on unless she can pay the mortgage, and it looks like Banker Q Nellyninny is not to be reckoned with. What can happen with this tale of two plus two? Maybe it will be a four-gone conclusion.
You can’t miss this great story of good over evil….always a lesson to be learned at school if you pay attention.
