COCA to Present Tall Stories' SNAIL AND THE WHALE, 3/22-23

COCA presents Tall Stories' Snail and the Whale, March 22-23, 2014, in COCA's Founders' Theatre. A tiny snail hitches a lift on the tail of a humpback whale in order to see the world. But when the whale gets beached, how will the snail save him? Based on the beloved children's book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, Snail and the Whale follows the tiny snail's amazing journey as seen through the eyes of an adventurous young girl and her seafaring father. Created and performed by Tall Stories, creator of The Gruffalo (at COCA, 2013) and Twinkle Twonkle (at COCA, 2012), Snail and the Whale is recommended for ages 3 to 10.
