Season 17: Theatre for Young Audiences

A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD

Book and lyrics by Willie Reale Music by Robert Reale
Based on the books by Arnold Lobel
Directed by KEVIN BARLOWSKI


Arnold Lobel’s beloved characters hop from the page to the stage as best friends Frog and Toad navigate four fun-filled seasons.

3-time Tony Award Nominee, including Best Musical

From swimming to raking leaves to baking cookies, best friends Frog and Toad do everything together – no matter what the weather. Waking up from hibernation in the spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, go sledding, and learn life lessons along the way. The two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. Part vaudeville, part make-believe... all charm! Based on the classic picture books, join Frog and Toad in a series of hilarious, sweet, and whimsical adventures through the seasons – a heartfelt musical ode to friendship.
