Rosenthal Next Generation Theatre Series Presents THE GARDEN OF RIKKI TIKKI TAVI

The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park's Rosenthal Next Generation Theatre Series continues with unique comedy, larger-than-life puppets and a combination of dance, theatre and music to transport you to another world while teaching valuable life lessons.

On April 3, The Garden of Rikki Tikki Tavi, a free-flowing adaptation of the Kipling classic, will enchant audiences of all ages! Darzee, the diva tailor bird, is incensed when Rikki Tikki Tavi, a young mongoose, washes up in her pristine garden. Darzee and her friend, Chuchu, pull out all the stops attempting to run off the pesky mongoose until they see that Nag, the cobra and garden tyrant, runs in fear when Rikki Tikki Tavi is on the loose. This comedy about sharing and cooperation has been produced across the country.

All shows take place at 10:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. in The Playhouse's Rosenthal Plaza.

All performances are for ages 4 and up. Made possible by the Lois and Richard Rosenthal Foundation, the Rosenthal Next Generation Theatre Series involves youngsters in the excitement of theatre. All afternoon performances are signed for the hearing impaired courtesy of the Cincinnati State Interpreter Training Program.

Tickets are $5 for theatregoers ages 4 to 18 and $6 for adults through The Playhouse box office at 513/421-3888 (toll-free in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana at 800/582-3208) or online at www.cincyplay.com.
