BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center, the longest operating performance venue in lower Manhattan, proudly presents Curious George, based on the books by Margaret and H.A. Rey, on Saturday, May 30 at 1:30PM. Curious George is the final show of BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center's 2014-2015 Family Theater Season, featuring plays, musicals, puppetry, concerts and dance for all ages.

Join the inquisitive, lovable little monkey Curious George, star of books, movies and the award winning PBS television show, in this delightful new musical for ages 4 and up.

All-You-Can-Eat Meatball Day comes just once a year. George has been waiting all year for this day, a day almost bigger than his birthday! On Meatball Day, George helps his friend Chef Pisghetti cook some delicious meatballs, and serve them to the hungry crowd. But this year, the crowd has vanished! Something is keeping people away. Something pretty big. And that "something" is Phinneas T. Lightspeed and his speedy Meatballs O'Matic machine. In despair, Chef Pisghetti vows to cook no more. Determined to help his friend, George goes on a mission to enter the Chef's meatballs in the world-famous Golden Meatball Contest...in Rome. With every swing and flip, George takes the audience through a fun-filled adventure in which he learns more about Rome, meatballs, and the "secret ingredient" to cooking!

Curious George features a book by Jeremy Desmon with original music by John Kavanaugh. This production is directed and choreographed by Marcia Milgrom Dodge (Broadways's Ragtime, Theatreworks USA's Seussical). The show features costumes by Tracy Christenson (Lortel nominee for Theatreworks' Seussical) with sets by Michael Schweikardt.
