If You Give a Mouse a Cookie
Based on the book by Laura Joffe Numeroff
Adapted for the stage by Jody Davidson
What could go wrong if you give a mouse a cookie? Well, he’ll want a glass of milk to wash the cookie down, then a napkin to wipe off his milk moustache, then…well, you get the picture. Before long, our hero is faced with the task of getting his very disorderly (thanks to the mouse) house in order before his Mom get home. Kids will love this fast-paced adaptation of the popular children’s book.
*If You Give a Mouse a Cookie is best suited for elementary school audiences. Available for performances beginning September 22, 2009. Study Guide provided.
