Produced by the same creative team that brought You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown, and It’s a Wonderful Life to the Kelsey last year, Winnie the Pooh, the Musical brings the timeless characters of A.A. Milne to life in an exciting way. Featuring a team of local actors, the story is performed using muppet-like hand and rod puppets. Presented in the Japanese puppet style of Buraku, both the puppets and the actors operating them are visible on stage resulting in a hybrid performance between the actors and the characters they portray/operate. With this traditional technique in play, children and adults alike are sure to enjoy the adventures of Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet, Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, Owl and Christopher Robin as they sing and dance their way through the Hundred Acre Wood in this enchanting musical retelling of Milne’s classic tales.
