WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Kait Kerrigan's Henry and Mudge is a brand-new musical based on the heroes of Cynthia Rylant's best-selling picture books. Peter Flynn directs. Choreographed by Devanand Janki; lyrics by Kait Kerrigan and Brian Lowdermilk; and composed by Brian Lowdermilk.
Moving from the city to a new house in the country can be tough. Just ask Henry. He misses Annie, his cousin and best friend, and can't find a playmate in his new neighborhood. Luckily Mom and Dad buy him a great, big, slobberly dog - Mudge - with whom he can share all kinds of adventures. It looks like Henry and Mudge will be best friends forever, until Annie arrives for a visit. Will Annie come between a boy and his dog? Can a kid have two best friends?
