La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts continues its 2011-12 Programs for Young Audiences series with ArtsPower's national tour of Are You My Mother?, an enchanting musical about Baby Bird's courageous adventure. This 55-minute, original musical based on P.D. Eastman's endearing children's classic is recommended for audiences ages 4 and up. Performances are Sunday, March 25, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

ArtsPower's musical begins when Baby Bird hatches from her egg only to find an empty nest. Unaware that her mother has left to find food, Baby Bird decides to leave the nest to look for her; along the way, she meets an array of colorful characters who help and advise her. Persistent Baby Bird is determined to find her mother no matter what.
 
Are You My Mother? features a rich, upbeat musical score and imaginative sets. Greg Gunning, ArtsPower's Artistic Director, adapted and directed the show and wrote the lyrics. Richard DeRosa wrote and orchestrated the musical score.
