Orpheum Theatre to Open Family Series with THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR, 11/1-2

? Back by popular demand, Eric Carle's famous story of the little caterpillar returns to the Orpheum Theatre November 1-2 to open the Orpheum Theatre's 2013-2014 Family Series.

Presented by the award-winning Mermaid Theatre, the triple-bill includes the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar's metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly, the fanciful account of a Little Cloud's travels through the sky, and the Mixed-Up Chameleon's discovery of his own unique nature. These whimsical tales have enchanted generations, and Mermaid Theatre's acclaimed stage adaptation will inspire and entertain.

Families are invited to arrive early and take part in pre-show lobby activities provided by Children's Museum of Memphis.
