My family loved watching this adventure of a family going on a bear hunt!  The journey this young family took through the grass, water, and my son's favorite... the MUD, made for several laugh out loud moments.  It was so much fun to have the audience involved in the performance.  The characters were out in the audience getting ideas from the kids and even having a bit of fun with a squirt gun!!  No fancy sets or elaborate orchestras here, just real life props and great imaginations.  Both my kids were singing it the back seat on the way home.  My daughter even wanted to use her own buckets and towels to "go through" the water while she recreated the story at home.

We always love Childrne's Theater productions because they are the perfect length for little ones and each and every show we've been to has been able to capture the attention of all of our kids!  This is the perfect introduction to theater for even the youngest of viewers! 

Several dates are still available around town so don't miss out on this fun show!
