Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia

From the company that brought you Leo Lionni and Eric Carle, Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia presents a double-bill adaptation of Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd’s beloved bedtime classics, Goodnight Moon andThe Runaway Bunny.   Goodnight Moon is a celebration of familiar nighttime rituals, and The Runaway Bunny’s pretend tale of leaving home evokes reassuring responses from his loving mum.  Both tales feature endearing rabbit characters, and the soothing rhythms of bunny banter and dream-like imagery never fail to infuse young readers with a reassuring sense of security and peace.  Whimsical puppetry and evocative original music will bring a new sense of appreciation to stories that have delighted several generations.
