Based on the best-selling British novel by Terry Ronald, this new musical is directed and choreographed by two-time Tony Award® winner Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots, Hairspray), with a book by Elliot Davis (Peter Pan, Loserville), and a score by the songwriting team of George Stiles (Music) and Anthony Drewe (Lyrics) (Mary Poppins, Peter Pan, Honk!).

Fun for the whole family, Metropolitan Performing Arts (MPA) presents Honk Jr, a delightful adaptation of the beloved fable and award-winning musical that is a heartwarming celebration of what makes us special. Ugly looks quite a bit different from his darling duckling brothers and sisters. The other animals on the farm are quick to notice and point this out, despite his mother's protective flapping. Feeling rather foul about himself, the little fowl finds himself on an adventure of self-discovery, all the while unknowingly outwitting a very hungry Cat. Along the way, Ugly meets a whole flock of unique characters and finds out being different is not a bad thing to be.

Venice Theatre is kicking the summer off right with its fun, energetic production of Honk. This Anthony Drewe and George Stiles musical based on the story of the Ugly Duckling, reminds us that it is alright to be different. Honk follows Ugly in his journey to find himself and a place of belonging. Seen as an outcast by his siblings and his father, Drake, Ugly is befriended by the Cat whose sole ambition is to eat Ugly.

Following its critically acclaimed London run, Olivier Award-winning musical Honk! is finally flying the nest this year, soaring into the Belgrade Theatre 4-8 June.

HONK! the ugly duckling musical is playing at Delaware Theatre Company through May 12, 2019.

HONK! Is a musical adaptation of the Hans Christian Anderson story of "The Ugly Duckling". It embodies a message of tolerance and bullying…and as Director Bud Martin suggests in his program notes…'the discourse in our country today is full of bullying, name-calling, racism and anti-immigration". (Provoked by our Narcissist in Chief. My words, not Martin's).

Today the cast members of the upcoming tour of Honk! The Musical was announced. After a successful run at the Union theatre in 2017, the production went into workshops at The Arts Centre, Hounslow which is where the tour is due to open on May 1st 2019.

The tea brand of choice for five-star hotels and Michelin chefs worldwide, TEALEAVES, in collaboration with Microsoft Design and 14 Luxury Hotels, launched an online sensory experience that showcases the importance of aroma as an ingredient for a heightened food and drink experience, as well as a vehicle for self discovery and connection. Taking TEALEAVES' newly redesigned Classic Teabags as the muse, and the accompanying color selected by PANTONE, the exploration profiles the aroma and mood-inspired works of 17 world-renowned culinary, pastry and mixology artists. The exploration also includes a documentary, Language of Aroma, which features scent-branding experts, the inventor of a scent organ capable of helping depressed people, language creator from Game of Thrones and head coach of Bocuse D'Or Team USA. 'Aroma is a powerful trigger of memory; a brief whiff can create vivid, potent images in our mind, associated with a confluence of recollections,' says Lana Sutherland, CEO of TEALEAVES. 'This collaboration and online experience arose from our desire to create an elevated experience for our consumers, using our blending principles to connect on a deeper and much more emotional level. 'For this collaboration, we explored communicating this elusive sense through exploring the relationship between aroma and mood, connecting the personality, traditions and rituals inherent in each of our blends to a scent memory.' Intensifying flavor with tea-infused food and cocktail recipes. 'Aroma is the soul of any dish - eating without aroma is like eating without soul, it doesn't make sense,' says Executive Chef, Srijith Gopinath, of Taj Campton Place. Culinary and mixology artists have used TEALEAVES' teas in their repertoire of secret ingredients for more than two decades. At the world's most prestigious culinary competition, Bocuse D'Or teams have used TEALEAVES' teas to amplify the intensity of their creations. Why? Because according to Robert Sulatycky, Head Coach of Bocuse D'Or Team USA, 'It is aroma that is the difference between silver and gold.' TEALEAVES challenged chefs and mixologists to each create a recipe inspired by the mood, PANTONE color and aroma of one of TEALEAVES' newly redesigned Classic Teabags. The goal was for the dish to evoke the aromatic experience of drinking the tea, through a dish. The final product? Each creation was served as its PANTONE color, derived naturally from the ingredients alone, and featured a signature aromatic expression from smoke, to mist, to 'tea air' - a feast inclusive to all of the senses. 'We thought this challenge would shed light on the difficulty of designing for a sense that cannot be seen - how might an expert in the world of palate communicate the aroma of our blend?' Ms. Sutherland asks. To embark on this sensory exploration visit, LanguageOfAroma.com This exploration is the second in a three part series by TEALEAVES entitled 'PALATE,' which explores the three main design elements of tea blending: Color, Aroma and Taste. Language Of Aroma builds upon TEALEAVES' first exhibit on color, in collaboration with PANTONE: Palate for Your Palette, which was featured at SxSW 2017. Language of Aroma Events: SXSW 2019: Sunday March 10th Language of Aroma was selected for a panel at SXSW 2019 in Austin Texas, which brought together several experts featured in the film over a panel session to discuss inclusive design and the language of aroma.
