Mermaid Theater of Nova Scotia: Goodnight Moon & the Runaway Bunny January 9, 2010

Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia adds to its acclaimed repertory of outstanding children's productions with an innovative double bill adaptation of Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd's beloved bedtime classics, 'Goodnight Moon' and 'The Runaway Bunny.' 'Goodnight Moon' is a celebration of familiar nighttime rituals, while 'The Runaway Bunny's' pretend tale of leaving home evokes reassuring responses from his loving mother. Both tales feature endearing rabbit characters, and the soothing rhythms of bunny banter and dream-like imagery never fail to infuse young readers with a reassuring sense of security. Mermaid's staged adaptation will bring a new sense of appreciation to stories that have delighted several generations.
