Berkeley Playhouse Conservatory 'You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown' June 2, 2011

June 2, 7:30pm, June 3, 7:30pm, June 4, 10am, 1pm, 5pm, 8pm

It's an average day in the life of Charlie Brown, and that means moments that range from wild optimism to utter despair! Even though Charlie Brown is considered a "good man" by his friends, he can't seem to win the heart of the Little Red-Haired Girl. Nor his friend Lucy, her crush, the piano-playing Schroeder. Snoopy and Linus daydream while the rest of the friends battle with kites, school, baseball and misunderstandings before all finally come to realize what makes them truly happy. Ah, childhood. Based on the beloved Peanuts comic strip, "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" is a rollicking musical that strings together all your favorite characters and stories, from one uncertain morning to its hopeful, starry night.

Performed by Berkeley Playhouse Conservatory KidStage (Grades 3-5).
