A Year With Frog and Toad
Based on the books by Arnold Lobel
Music by Robert Reale, Book and Lyrics by Willie Reale
December 5, 2008 to January 3, 2009
Ages 3 to 12/K to Grade 6

Winning songs, whimsical costumes, a stellar cast, and a live band make a must see—or must-see-again—for Winnipeg audiences.  Steve Ross and Al Simmons are re-united in MTYP’s “ribbetting’ holiday musical celebrating the unshakable friendship between a pessimistic Toad and an upbeat Frog.  Based on Arnold Lobel’s masterful stories, our last production was an immediate sell-out. Join Frog, Toad, the Snail with the Mail, Turtle, Mouse and the whole crew for kite-flying, sled-racing, cookie-munching fun.

Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International, New York

“A cocoon of pure pleasure and delight.” ~ The Winnipeg Free Press

“This is a superb production—the best musical Winnipeggers will see this year.  I want to see it again and again.” Robert Enright, CBC Radio
