Best friends. Big laughs. One wild show.
HELLO!
Thank you for coming!
We are in a play!
(Wait... what?)
Yes, it’s true. Gerald (a careful, worried elephant) and Piggie (a joyful, jumpy pig) are the STARS of this MUSICAL. There will be singing! There will be dancing! There will be Squirrelles! And bananas! But MOST OF ALL... there will be FRIENDSHIP. Because when your best friend is by your side, anything—even being in a play—can be the best surprise ever.
“It’s a tantalizing, toe-tapping treat for all ages, guaranteed to put a smile on every face…” – Theatre In Chicago
“A colorful, fast-paced fun musical that will delight children, especially lovers of the book series!.” – Broadway World
