Corduroy

Coming Soon! March 17 - 26

Purchase tickets Here

Our Theatre for Families production of Corduroy opens in less than two weeks, on Friday, March 17th. We’re so excited to see this loveable teddy bear from the beloved children’s book of the same name, come to life on our historic stage! Created by author Don Freeman in 1968, Corduroy has increased in popularity through the years. His story of searching through a department store for his lost button and little Lisa, who desperately wants to take him home, has stricken a chord with many since childhood.

He will read his book at the Family Storytime at 10:00 a.m. that morning. He’ll also chat with kids and will be available for photo taking.

On Sunday, March 12th, cast members from the production are slated to appear on Good Day Sacramento on Channel 31! Estimated airtime is 8:45 a.m.

Corduroy is a tender, enduring story about true friendship and it stirs up the stage with a rumpus of action, joy, and pathos. Directed by Ania Mieszkowska. Performances are set for Friday nights at 7:30 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays at 2:00 p.m.

Reserved seats are $20 for Adults, $18 for Seniors (62+), and $10 for Children. Balcony tickets are $12 for Adults and $7 for Children. Flex Pass specials and group rates are available.
