Roxy Regional School Of The Arts Presents A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD Kids, June 12 - July 1

Children and adults alike will relish in the joyful vignettes, catchy tunes, funny dialogue and bright, memorable characters of A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS, opening at the Roxy Regional Theatre on Monday, June 12, at 6:00pm.

Performed by twenty-four local youth from the Roxy Regional School of the Arts, ages 8 to 18, the treasured characters from Arnold Lobel's beloved children's books hop from the page to the stage in this streamlined kid-friendly version of the beautiful Broadway musical about a friendship that endures.

Part vaudeville, part make-believe and all charm, this whimsical musical follows two great friends — the cheerful, popular Frog, and the rather grumpy Toad — through four fun-filled seasons.

Waking from hibernation, Frog (played by Caleb Crosby) and Toad (played by Moira Patterson) bake cookies, swim, rake leaves, go sledding and learn life lessons along the way.  Throughout the year, the two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special.  

The culmination of five months of hard work by these talented young performers, A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS also features Aiyana Cotton, Aislyn Gann, Pluto Graham, Anniston Heron, Bennet Hubbell, Phasia Karyeah, Izzy Kelly, Marabella Lopez, Isaiah Meehan, Abigail Myers, Mia Olson, Piper Peters, Aaliyah Rivera, Lily Rives, Colten Schafer, Bailey Sinks, Addy Stull, Zamaria White, Aria Willis, Adyson Woodring and Lillian Zigelhofer.

Based on the books by Arnold Lobel and written by Willie Reale with music by Robert Reale, A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS is directed and choreographed by Emily Ruck with co-direction by David Graham.

Produced in part by Hugh & Joy Hatcher, with additional funding support provided by Barbara & Larry Goolsby, A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS is presented through special arrangement with and all authorized performance materials are supplied by Music Theatre International (MTI), www.mtishows.com.
