Join Barter Theatre for a heartwarming holiday adventure with I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas. Set at the Cincinnati Zoo, this festive musical follows seven-year-old Lois Jean, whose Christmas wish is for the zoo’s hippo, Big Suzy, to give birth in time for the holidays. When baby Bella arrives prematurely, it takes a miracle—and a little help from Santa—to save the day. Filled with catchy songs, lovable characters, and the magic of the season, this one-act show is perfect for audiences of all ages. Performances will be held at 2:00PM and 7:00PM on December 13th.
