ABOUT THE SHOW

Based on the book by Margery Williams

Every family has a toy that’s been loved almost to pieces.

A faded teddy. A well-worn rabbit. A faithful friend hugged, dragged, dropped and loved through every adventure.

The Velveteen Rabbit tells the story of how one toy became exactly that kind of friend. When a small boy takes him into his arms, everything begins to change.

Told with warmth and beautiful puppetry, this classic story invites young learners to consider the power of friendship, imagination, and what makes something truly real.
