Unicorn Children's Theatre Presents 'Winnie the Pooh’

Unicorn Children’s Theatre presents Ruth Call’s adaptation of Winnie the Pooh, by A.A. Milne, April 28-30 in the Caine Lyric Theatre. The play follows Christopher Robin and his friends on their adventure in the hundred acre woods.

“Winnie the Pooh is a story of friendship and love, which makes it wonderfully family friendly,” said Kris Bushman, the play’s director.

Audience members can join Christopher Robin, his best friend Pooh and the whole animal crew for a delightful adventure, Bushman said. Follow Winnie the Pooh on his daily hunt for honey, watch Tigger bounce through the forest and help Eeyore find a new home.

Curtains open at 7:30 p.m. nightly, April 28-30, with a 2 p.m. matinee April 30. Performances are presented at the Caine Lyric Theatre, 28 W. Center Street, Logan.

General admission tickets are $10 for adults and $3 for children ages 3-13. One child will be admitted free of charge with the purchase of two adult tickets.

The cast includes 25 members, including 16 local children who auditioned for the play.

“This will be a great experience for the kids of Unicorn Theatre to work as supporting roles with the adult professionals,” said Bushman. “They will have the opportunity to learn new techniques and skills that will be helpful throughout their acting careers.”

Unicorn Theatre was founded by Ruth Call to give children an opportunity to express themselves through the arts.

Tickets can be purchased at the Caine College of the Arts Box Office at Utah State University in room 139-B of the Chase Fine Arts Center, online or by phone, 435-797-8022.
