Performance Dates: July 23-26

(Description from the website, which pretty much sums it up) “In the London season featuring the appearance of “The Lion King,” “Honk!” became a stand-out by winning the 2000 Olivier Award (the British equivalent of the Tony® Award) for Best New Musical, beating out “The Lion King.”
       Written by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe “Honk!” is the story of Ugly, whose odd, gawky looks instantly incite prejudice from his family and neighbors. Separated from the farm and pursued by a hungry Cat, Ugly must find his way home. Along his rollicking and harrowing journey he not only discovers his true beauty and glorious destiny, but also finds love and acceptance in all its forms.
       Witty and hilarious, but also deeply moving, “Honk!” will treat your audiences to equal amounts of laughter and tears. Perfect for a cast as small as ten or as large as 30 (or more), Its charm, humor and message of tolerance is perfect for a family audience… and every audience.

            (Responses from members of the Performance Committee and Staff):  “Very sweet with a strong moral and a funny, funny script.  I think the kids would have a great time with it.”

            “The perfect choice for a teen production.  Smart, witty, and sensitive.  Kids will love doing it and audiences will love seeing it.”
