WINNIE THE POOH Enters Final Weekend at Theater Works 5/20-22

This is the final weekend to see the delightful Youth Works' production of WINNIE THE POOH. Winnie-the-Pooh is Christopher Robin's fat little bear of Very Little Brain who would like to drift peacefully through life, humming tunes and stopping every once in-awhile to "eat a little something." But this time, his penchant for eating gets him stuck! And it's just when his friend Piglet needs him most! Kanga's preparing to give poor Piglet a bath and forcing him to take Strengthening Medicine! Will Pooh get unstuck in time? A.A. Milne's wit and special understanding of young people make this one of the most endearing children's tales of all time. Final performances in the McMillin Theater are on May 20, 21 and 22 and tickets are $16 / adult and $12 / student.

Families and friends will also have a chance to dine with Winnie The Pooh and Friends. Enjoy a delicious meal with LIVE Pooh Characters: Eeyore, Roo, Piglet, Pooh...and Tigger, too!
