Performs October 28th-30th, 2022
Winnie the Pooh
Playful People Productions is excited to present their own adaptation of A.A.Milne’s classic 1926 children’s book, Winnie the Pooh!
In this original set of stories, we meet Christopher Robin, Pooh Bear, Piglet, Eeyore, Owl, Kanga, Roo, and Rabbit. To give our youngest players a chance to shine in a BIG way, we are casting as many small casts as needed depending on enrollment.
Cast size will be 8-12 kids per cast, giving everyone a chance to play a bigger part with lots of lines! We will add “Rabbit’s Friends and Relations” roles as needed for actors not wanting a big role. Each cast will be paired with a tween/teen actor from our internship program, who will act as Narrator and Assistant Director for their assigned cast.
Performances will be short (approx. 45 minutes) and each cast will get 2 performances.
Director: Shannon Santandrea
