STELLALUNA - Through April 4
By Tears of Joy Theatre of Portland, OR
Based on the book by Janell Cannon (used by permission)

Stellaluna, the enchanting story of a baby fruit bat who falls into a bird’s nest, is adapted from the beloved book by Janell Cannon. Poor Stellaluna tries to adapt to her new home but finds herself the odd one out, hanging by her feet and disgusted by those bugs Mother Bird brings home for dinner. What a relief to discover she is a bat! Now she can celebrate her abilities and differences rather than be ashamed of them!

Based on the original script by Jon Ludwig and Eddie Levi Lee

Step right up, ladies and gentleman, Dr. Hezekiah Bigelow’s Wild West Puppet Show is a-rollin’ into town. Tall Tales is what he’s telling and Tall Tale Tonic is what he’s selling. This historical hoedown honors American heroes by spinning tales taller than a ten-gallon hat! Enjoy twangy tunes as this musical extravaganza recounts how Paul Bunyan and his devoted friend, Babe the Blue Ox, invent logging; how Hekeke saves her tribe from a people-eating ogre; how John Henry becomes a steel-driving man; and how Pecos Bill becomes King of the Cowboys.
