Great news! Imagination Stage's Summer musical, Pete the Cat has been extended by popular demand. Plus, they've announced their upcoming season, and they've got plenty of
options for ticket packages. Get your calendar and start planning some theater fun now! |
Imagination Stage's Summer musical, Pete the Cat, is based on the New York Times #1 best-selling book series by Kimberly and James Dean. It's become a staple in households and classrooms for its colorful art and resilient protagonist, Pete the Cat.
For
Pete the Cat, life is an adventure no matter where you wind up. So the minute the groovy blue cat meets The Biddles, he gets the whole family rocking. That is, except for young Jimmy Biddle, the most organized second grader on planet Earth. But when Jimmy draws a blank in art class during the last week of school, it turns out Pete is the perfect pal to help him out. Together, they set out on a mission to help Jimmy conquer second grade art, and along the way, they both learn a little something
new about inspiration. Best for ages 4 and up. Weekend and weekday matinee performances. Tickets start at $15. |
