LOOK WHAT’S COMING TO THE
Erie Playhouse!!!
Chimpanzees are coming for tea if Vincent has anything to say about it!
So, you don't want to miss one of our 3 weekend FREE family performances Saturday April 29 @ 10:00 am & 12:00 pm or Sunday, April 30 @2:00 pm
Yes, Erie Playhouse PLAYtime is back, live onstage, this time with an original work created by our very own team!
Jo Empson, author of "Chimpanzees for Tea" has given speclal permission to PLAYtime to create a fun musical inspired by this loved children's Imagination Library story. The show is a fantastical story of a young boy who gets lost in his imagination on his way to run a simple errand for mom! So many surprises await our young audience and their families. And who knows..maybe even some of our audience will join us for tea, LIVE onstage!
The program runs 25 minutes in length and young children attending will receive a free activity packet and the story!
