FERDINAND THE BULL

 

Ferdinand the Bull
Based on the book The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf and Robert Lawson
Written by Karen Zacarías

Music by Deborah Wicks La Puma
Directed by Susan Sanford


Single Tickets $14 -- $18

A hilarious, bilingual family musical about an unusual bull who doesn't want to fight and butt heads like all the other bulls – he just wants to take care of his beloved flowers. Young Duquito Danilo dreams of being a dancer, while his father plans to make Danilo a great Spanish bullfighter. When the Duque comes looking for the toughest toro for his son's bullfight in Madrid, he mistakenly picks Ferdinand. Ferdinand the Bull is an exuberant romp about being yourself and refusing to be bullied into acting like someone you're not. Integrating Spanish, flamenco dancing and original music, kids and adults will love the clever wordplay, comical characters and lively music!
