If you take your kids to one theatre performance this holiday season, this should be the one! Even kids at heart are likely to enjoy themselves!

'Woody Sez' is recommended. The enthusiasm the talented performers have for sharing Woody's music (and his legacy) is infectious. If you're a fan of Woody, you are likely to love it.
