Summer Musical Theater: A Year with Frog & Toad

Summer at Hockaday's musical theater is for all who have an interest in musical theater. No experience is necessary. Come have a blast with us as we produce A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS on stage! This whimsical show follows two great friends - the cheerful, popular Frog, and the rather grumpy Toad - through four fun-filled seasons. Waking from hibernation, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding, and learn life lessons along the way. Throughout the year, two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. Adapted from the three-time-Tony-nominated Broadway hit and based on Arnold Lobel's well-loved books, the jazzy, upbeat score bubbles with melody. Part vaudeville, part make-believe, and all charm!
