UP-COMING EVENTS


November 26-29 & December 3-6, 2009

In the London season that featured the arrival of The Lion King, HONK! still managed to become a stand-out by winning the 2000 Olivier Award (the British equivalent of the Tony® Award) for Best New Musical. 

HONK! is the story of Ugly, whose odd, gawky looks instantly incite prejudice from his family and neighbours. Separated from the farm and pursued by a hungry Cat, Ugly must find his way home. Along his rollicking and harrowing journey he not only discovers his true beauty and glorious destiny, but also finds love and acceptance in all its forms.

Suitable for all ages - the young and the young at heart - this family show embodies a positive message of tolerance and acceptance all set to a stunning score.

Running Time: Approximately 105 minutes.
March 4-7, 2010
Mark Twain's classic story comes to exuberant musical life in this Broadway adaptation of America's favorite book. 

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is the irresistible story of a fourteen-year-old boy growing up in the heartland of America. In the course of the story, Tom matches wits with his stern Aunt Polly, falls in love with the beautiful, feisty Becky Thatcher, and goes on the adventure of his life with Becky and that irresistible renegade, Huckleberry Finn. 

Along the way we meet a terrifying villain named Injun Joe, Tom's bratty half-brother Sid, and all the other boys and girls in the village - providing one scene-stealing children's role after the other.

This family show is suitable for all ages.

Running Time: Approximately 110 minutes.
