About The Show
Harold and his colorful crayon have been enchanting readers for half a century and now his precocious purple pictures are coming to life on the stage. In this gently inspirational musical version of Crockett Johnson’s beloved tribute to the powers of young creativity, Harold’s charming scribbles take him on adventures on the earth and into the heavens. Along the journey, he draws the true blue conclusion of so many other wanderers: maybe no place is better than being in your own room with your imagination.
The production will utilize puppetry, music, and projections to tell Harold’s magical story!
