Synopsis:
the Velveteen Beaver is a retelling of the Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams. Stuffed toys are everywhere in Sophie's bedroom, but one toy in particular, the Velveteen Beaver, wants to be a real beaver, with a real flat tail instead of a label. However, Aunt Hattie would just as soon throw out a dirty stuffie after being around a sick Sophie. Join the musical adventures of a toy beaver and his friend the Rocking Moose as he attempts to "get real".
Notes:
Winner of the 2007 Robert C. Hayes playwriting competition. there Are eight characters, but the Butler And Doctor can Also play (Wild) Beavers I And II. Although the script is written As if the Velveteen Beaver is male, the premiere production was very successfully done with A female in the role.
