Recommended for grade levels PreK - 2

Goodnight Moon is a celebration of familiar nighttime rituals, while The Runaway Bunny’s pretend tale of leaving home evokes reassuring responses from his loving mother. Both tales feature endearing rabbit characters, and the soothing rhythms of bunny banter and dream-like imagery infuse young readers with a reassuring sense of security. Mermaid Theatre’s staged adaptation will bring a new sense of appreciation to stories that have delighted generations.

Highlighted by narration and an original score, Mermaid Theatre’s emphasis on imaginative design elements, puppetry, and classic texts provides a rich opportunity to acquaint young audiences with the visual and performing arts as well as with the pleasures of reading.
