SUMMARY:Peter Rabbit and Friends
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we bring childhood classics to life! \nFour favorite Beatrix Potter stories\, The Tale of Peter Rabbit- The Tailor of Gloucester\, The Tale of Jeremy Fisher\, and The Tale of Tom Kitten- come to life in this mesmerizing puppet show\, complete with Potter’s original text and live\, original music. Mandolin\, violin\, toy piano\, and banjo create the score and melodies behind each story.  The set is filled with dynamic props and puppetry\, opening a portal to a visual wonderworld. Levers are pulled and cranks are turned on magical suitcases to reveal images that surprise and delight. Three charming performers interweave classic narration and puppetry with gentle interactive moments\, recruiting you and your child to join the adventure and encouraging young watchers to think about these iconic characters’ big emotions. These are sweet tales we all remember- a sure classic the whole family can enjoy! \nWhat audiences are saying: \n“Simple yet magical… The stories exude childlike excitement through the work of three polished and enchanting actors… the two-dimension Potter puppets come to life with humor\, mystery and spirit.  The live music serves as a perfect underscore and often allows the ensemble to break into songs that heighten dramatic moments or transition actions within a story.  This energy\, coupled with a simple and breathtaking scenic design (which centers on magical boxes)\, allows for a sense of old-school magic rarely seen in this digital age.” – Headliner Chicago \n“Through the use of hand-cranks and props\, sound effects and song\, each of these well-known characters came to life and their stories kept us all — old and young alike — entranced until the end.” – Buzz Center Stage. \n  \n \nGorton Center’s performing arts shows for the 2024-2025 season are partially underwritten by The Grainger Foundation.
