Mermaid Theater of Nova Scotia: the Very Hungry Caterpillar February 24, 2008

Selling more than 12 million copies and translated into 20 languages, Eric Carle's 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' follows the ravenous path of a very tiny and very hungry caterpillar as he eats through an amazing variety of foods on his way to metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly. Puppetry, music, and black light effects turn the Caterpillar's struggle to find his own voice into a "playful and tender" ('The Los Angeles Times') glow-in-the-dark fun event.
