Elephant & Piggie’s “We are in a Play”: Smart Stage Matinee Series

Based on the beloved Elephant & Piggie books by Mo Willems, this fun-filled musical follows the lovable duo, Elephant Gerald and Piggie, as they embark on a hilarious adventure on stage! An elephant named Gerald and a pig named Piggie are best, best, “bestus” (a word Gerald and Piggie made up that means “very best”) friends. But Gerald worries that something could go wrong that would end their friendship. Piggie is not worried at all. She’s even happier and more excited than usual. That’s because she and Gerald are invited to a party hosted by the Squirrelles, three singing squirrels who love to have a good time. And so begins a day when anything is possible. Gerald and Piggie will solve problems together, sing and dance to music played by a band on stage, make each other laugh, share their favorite things, get mad and sad with each other, and even do a little goofing around with you, the audience. Wait until you see what they have in mind!
