Approximate Time: 45 minutes
When a country mouse visits her city cousin, both are surprised by how different their lives are. From the peaceful comforts of the countryside to the bustling excitement of the city, each mouse discovers the joys—and challenges—of the other's world. As their adventure unfolds, they come to realize that home truly is where the heart is. This delightful adaptation of Aesop’s classic fable brings engaging storytelling, lovable characters, and timeless lessons about friendship, appreciation, and staying true to yourself to the stage.
WeeFolks Show perfect for children of ages 4-8 years old. In the Wee Folks Theatre pre-K and elementary audiences are introduced to structured theatrical performances. Shows in this space often come from the pages of favorite storybooks and classic fairy tales updated for today’s children. Usually (though not always) musical and/or interactive, audiences in Wee Folks are encouraged to react audibly and help our main characters on their story journey. Audiences sit on carpeted risers in this room created for children to enjoy theatre in a space designed for them. And with our Sensory Room right next door, kids who need a break have an easy place to reset mid-show.
This production is sponsored by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama and the Alabama State Council on the Arts.
