GROVE, WI - Sunset Playhouse will present the world premiere stage adaptation
of GOODNIGHT LULU as part of its bug
in a rug Children's Theatre Series, from January 28-30, 2010 in The Playhouse's Studio Theatre, 800
Elm Grove Road (Honorary Sunset Playhouse Way), Elm Grove, WI 53122.
Paulette
Bogan's fabulous book GOODNIGHT LULU
is brought to life with crackling wit and huge laughs in this bug in a rug special
original show! Saying goodnight can sometimes take a little coaxing and
convincing, especially for Lulu the chicken. You'll help Lulu overcome her fears, get tucked
in and fall asleep for the night.
Sunset
Playhouse's bug in a rug Children's Theatre Series is big fun for the
entire family. Performances take place
in The Playhouse's comfortable and welcoming Studio Theatre and are presented
as interactive "cuddle-time" performances.
Family audiences are encouraged to bring blankets, wear pajamas and
snuggle up for some SERIOUS
FUN Playhouse-style.
GOODNIGHT LULU is best appreciated
by young audiences ages 2-8. The
approximate running time of GOODNIGHT
LULU is 45 minutes. Join us one-half hour prior to all show times for a family fun craft
project that would keep Lulu and her friends up all night!
