CHILDREN’S PERFORMING ART SERIES

This season, a new adventure is coming to the Northwest Center for the Performing Arts.

Disney’s iconic Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin, and their best friends Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, Rabbit, and Owl (and don’t forget Tigger, too!) have come to life in a beautifully crafted musical stage adaptation.

Featuring the Sherman Brothers’ Grammy Awardwinning music with further songs by A.A. Milne, this classic story is told with stunning life-sized puppetry through the eyes of the characters we all know and love in a new chapter from the Hundred Acre Wood.

This production is created by renowned family entertainment creator Jonathan Rockefeller and made by Rockefeller Productions alongside Disney Theatrical Productions. Following a record-breaking New York premiere in 2021, The Hundred Acre Wood is heading down to Mississippi to spread joy for all ages.

Bring young ones and join the fun at the 10th Anniversary Tour of Vital Theatre Company’s long-running hit, Pinkalicious The Musical !

Based on the best-selling children’s book “Pinkalicious” by Elizabeth Kann and Victoria Kann, the main character, Pinkalicious, can’t stop eating pink cupcakes despite warnings from her parents. Her pink indulgence lands her at the doctor’s office with Pinkititis, an affliction that turns her pink from head to toe—a dream come true for this pink-loving enthusiast. But when her hue goes too far, only Pinkalicious can figure out a way to get out of this predicament.

The one-hour musical features lyrics by Elizabeth Kann and Victoria Kann and music, lyrics, and orchestrations by John Gregor. The musical adaptation is directed by Teresa K. Pond and based on the original direction of Suzu McConnell-Wood.
