October 8-October 30, 2016 By Kate DiCamillo Originally published by Candlewick Press Used with permission of Pippin Properties, Inc. Adapted for the stage by Dwayne Hartford Directed by Janet Stanford Best for Ages 6+ Have you ever loved a special doll or stuffed toy? If you have, this is the story for you! Abilene adores her china rabbit doll, Edward Tulane. But, Edward is spoiled and ungrateful until fate takes him on an emotional roller-coaster of an adventure through the 20th century. He is lost overboard on an ocean liner, fished up by a kindly villager, dumped in a heap of garbage, rescued by a hobo and his dog, turned into a scarecrow, and adopted by a little boy who gives him as a gift to his sickly sister. Little by little, Edward discovers goodness and humility. Inspired by the constellations, he learns to keep an open heart. Kate DiCamillo’s award-winning book translates beautifully to the stage. And, as in all good stories, even our reluctant hero finds a happy ending! Special Event: Halloween Costume Day: October 30 at 4:00 p.m. Come in costume! Take photos in front of our lobby display!
