Chasing Mother Goose presented by Children’s Theatre of Hampton Roads (Virginia Beach)
Children’s Theatre of Hampton Roads Presents
“Chasing Mother Goose”
Written by Jess Pinsky, directed by Katherine Nicole Schulze
The venerable poet Mother Goose currently presides over a library that houses every piece of literature in existence. Day and night she does her best to keep order and ensure peace among the shelves. But even under her no-nonsense watch, the books have a tendency to get out of hand. On a seemingly quiet night, the mad Hatter from Wonderland shows up, and when a copy of Moby Dick is returned with pages missing, Captain Ahab also arrives – to wreak vengeance on the creature that took his leg!
Mother Goose and the Hatter have no choice but to comb the other books for Ahab’s missing pages and put him back together before the library opens in the morning, all the while fleeing the amnesic Ahab on his misguided mission! This hilariously creative play, rich with audience interaction, literary celebrities, and touching moments, will delight audiences of all ages.
Appropriate for all ages, best enjoyed by those four and up.
