Photo Flash: BABE Opens at Children's Theatre Company 1/21
With his surprising ability to wrangle fellow barnyard animals with determination and unsurpassed politeness, Babe-an unlikely and celebrated hero-makes his stage debut at Children's Theatre Company, beginning Jan. 21.
Peter C. Brosius, who earlier this season directed highly successful runs of Dr. Seuss' The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins and A Christmas Story, brings the heartwarming story of Babe to life in a tender and theatrical tale starring Dean Holt (previously Robin Hood and Cinderella stepsister, Pearl Cramp) and Reed Sigmund (Prince John/Little John/Will Scarlett/Friar Tuck in Robin Hood).
"Babe is a delightful story by the English writer Dick King-Smith," says Brosius. "Mr. Smith, who worked as a farmer for 20 years before becoming a teacher and writer, filled his writing with quirky, wonderfully observed characters. The playwright, David Wood, created a lively, very tender and theatrical story that inspires us all."
