Hundred Acre Park
September 7 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
FreeGet lost in nature with Pooh, Piglet, and all your favorite friends in a new musical adaptation of A.A. Milne’s original Winnie-the-Pooh novels, where the Hundred Acre Wood becomes the Hundred Acre Park! Playful puppetry will bring these lovable toys to life once again for a new generation of young ones growing up in a city like Philadelphia!
This production reimagines the characters for the modern child living in a time of climate change and urbanization, asking the question of “how do we talk to children about climate change?”, all without losing any of the magic and whimsy that made these stories magical in the first place. From Pooh’s journey up a very tall tree to meet some bees, to Eeyore needing a birthday present, to the time nobody could remember the last time it rained this much, the vignettes will take the whole family on an adventure across this lively park, while giving children a safe context to help understand the rapidly changing world around them. Hundred Acre Park is a folksy musical walk through the park with puppetry, whimsy, and fun for young children and inner children alike.
