Corduroy

Concert Hall at 10AM Duration: 60 minutes

Being a new kid in a big city can really give a little girl the blues. When Lisa sees Corduroy, a lonely teddy bear sitting unloved on a store shelf, she knows she has to adopt him. Lisa’s mother, however, will not let Lisa buy a bear missing a button. Join the cast of TheatreworksUSA’s new musical as Corduroy searches for his lost button and Lisa tries to figure out how to bring her new friend home. Based on Don Freeman’s popular book, this musical production features a lively jazz and R&B score that will surely be a delight!
