Parma-Powers Branch

Meeting Room A/B (150)

The Brecksville Theatre brings Mo Willem's beloved Pigeon to Parma-Powers Branch of CCPL. Live musical production. Q&A to follow. Tickets are free, but registration is required.

Register and include everyone attending in the Guests box. Each person will need a ticket. Pick up on the performance day, May 11. Tickets will be held until 6:25 PM.

Whatever you do, don’t let the Pigeon star in his own musical production! With a script written by Mo Willems, the creator of the #1 New York Times best-selling, Caldecott Honor award-winning “Pigeon” picture books, and featuring music by Deborah Wicks La Puma (Elephant & Piggie’s We Are in a Play!), Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The Musical! is even more fun than staying up late and having a hot dog party!

It’s not easy being the Pigeon-you never get to do ANYTHING! But when the Bus Driver has a crisis that threatens to make her passengers (gasp!) late, maybe that wily bird CAN do something.

Sponsored by the Friends of Parma Libraries.

Participants may be recorded and/or surveyed to capture this program’s effectiveness. Learn more about parent options at www.cuyahogalibrary.org/parent-options
