WE'RE GOING ON A BEAR HUNT Plays The Orpheum Theatre Tonight

The Orpheum Theatre's Family Series will present a fun-filled stage adaptation of Michael Rosen's award-winning book, We're Going on a Bear Hunt, tonight, May 1 at 6:30 PM.

Join four fearless adventurers on their quest to find a bear as they wade through the gigantic swishy swashy grass, the splishy splashy river and the thick oozy, squelchy mud! Full of rhymes and word play, this lively and lyrical stage adaptation features catchy songs and plenty of interactive, hands-on adventure for children.

Patrons are invited to arrive early and take part in pre-show lobby activities. We're Going on a Bear Hunt is recommended for ages 3 and up.
