Walnut Street Theatre Continues Season with ALEXANDER AND THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY, 2/1-9

By:

Fall in love with the delightful misadventures of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day with Walnut Street Theatre for Kids. Judith Viorst's popular children's book comes to life with an hour-long musical adaptation of Alexander... performed LIVE at Walnut Street Theatre, February 1 through February 9, 2013.
From the moment he wakes up, Alexander can tell it's going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. He wakes up with gum in his hair, trips on his skateboard and drops his sweater in a sink full of water. Breakfast is another disaster, when both his brothers find prizes in their cereal boxes and all Alexander gets is cereal. At school things aren't any better; his best friend abandons him on the playground and his mom forgets to put dessert in his lunch box. Might as well pack up and move to Australia! Alexander's unique outlook on life reveals the humor in the everyday challenges of being a kid. Audiences of all ages will be laughing along at each entertaining mishap. Filled with hilarious hijinks, lively songs and energetic dancing, this totally awesome musical is sure to tickle your funny bone as it helps kids understand that some days are just like that.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is an ideal outing for every elementary classroom and family with weekday and weekend matinee performances February 1, 2, 3, 8 and 9. Tickets are only $10-$16 with group discounts available for groups of fifteen or more. For tickets and information, please call 215-574-3550 or 800-982-2787. Tickets can also be purchased online at Ticketmaster or by visiting the Walnut's website at www.WalnutStreetTheatre.org.
