Featuring iconic animal characters like Peter Rabbit and celebrating British country life, Peter Rabbit and Friends adapts four of the classic beloved tales by British author, Beatrix Potter, into puppet shows built within mechanical trunks that unfold to reveal beautiful hand-painted backdrops. Three actors animate a range of animal puppets (including a giant fish!), accompany the performance on a range of classical instruments, and sing in harmony to bring these heartwarming stories to life. The Chicago Reader called the show “excellent children’s theater.”
