A Year with Frog and Toad

Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre, New Orleans

About the Show

Based on the Newbery and Caldecott Honor books by Arnold Lobel, A Year with Frog and Toad is a delightful musical that follows the adventures of Frog and Toad through four fun-filled seasons. Charming Frog and “worry-wart” Toad leap off Lobel’s pages, along with Snail, Mouse, and the rest of the animal gang, for some kite-flying, sled-racing and cookie-munching. Each amphibian anecdote comes to life with hilarious and heart-warming songs using jazzy ’30s style music to explore the challenges, rewards, and tenderness of friendship. A Year with Frog and Toad gloriously celebrates the idea that having a very best friend is about as good as life gets. And, having a friend who is different from you makes that friendship even more special.
