Children's Theatre
Lollipops for Breakfast
Saturday, February 4, 11:00AM and 1:30PM

Presented by Bonnie Duncan and the Gottabees

You can't have lollipops for breakfast! But today, Sylvie decides she's going to break that rule, even if it means she has to make her own amazingly perfect lollipop from scratch. Come along as she and her trusty pet bird search for missing ingredients, wrestle with giant candy machines, and get lost in a magical pop-up cookbook. The performance, told entirely without words, features puppetry and music.

Tickets: $10 Members / $12 General Public
