DON’T LET THE PIGEON DRIVE THE BUS:
THE MUSICAL!
Published by Hyperion Books for Children
Directed by Michael Mendez
From the pen of Caldecott-wining author, Mo Willems, comes our witty and woefully misunderstood hero, Pigeon. Dive into high-energy hilarity as Pigeon tries every trick in the book to get behind the wheel of his favorite bus. Packed with catchy tunes and plenty of laughs, this fun-filled show, based on the popular childrens' book series, invites audiences of all ages to help stop Pigeon's wild antics in their tracks. Put family fun on the calendar with this FREE Weston Young Company production playing in Weston and touring southern VT.
All Performances are FREE, but reservations are required.
Performances are outdoors with nearby indoor options in the event of extreme heat or rain. Please bring your own low-profile seating, sunscreen, water, and picnic supplies if you like!
