Peter Rabbit goes Surfing

The Longmont Theatre Company Youth Theatre is proud to present its annual summer theatre workshop. This year they are performing, 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit," and 'Wipeout.'
The Elementary program is proud to present 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit.'
Peter Rabbit, unlike sisters Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail, is following the advice of his tummy (and his cousin, Benjamin) versus the advice of his mother. Everyone (and we mean everyone!) knows that you stay out of Mr. McGregor's garden. But Peter and Benjamin still venture into a world filled with excitement, adventure and scrumptious vegetables! The thrills are just beginning when the angry farmer spots the silly bunnies.
Youwill meet other fun characters such as Caw and Kem, the two silly crows who know that a picket fence could never stop a bird. And who can forget the easy-going Cat, just waiting around the garden for her own meal. And, of course, there's Mr. McGregor, the angry, befuddled farmer, who is willing to go to great lengths to protect his garden. This sparkling musical adaptation of Potter's wonderful story is filled with delightful tunes that will make everyone smile. From Mr. McGregor's "This Is War," and Caw and Kem's "Bugs and Berries," to the beloved finale of "The Family That Sings Together," this will have your audiences hopping with delight
The teen program will be presenting 'Wipeout' a surf musical.
Wax up your surfboards, get out your beach blankets and catch the wave of this swell surf musical! It's just another sunny day at Avalon Beach until Mom and Pop announce they're selling their beloved surf shop and teen hangout. The snobbish developers from the nearby ritzy Cove want Avalon's stretch of sand... for a parking lot! But Mom and Pop's daughter Midge and all the loyal Avalon kids are determined-they're not going to let that happen! Riptide, the local kahuna, enters the big surf contest to vie for the grand prize money that will keep The Shack's doors open, but the crowd from the Cove will do anything to put the kibosh on Rip winning the prize money, including sabotage! When Riptide breaks his leg in a surfing accident (thanks to the conniving developer's son Reef), it's up to Midge to step onto her Billabong and go up against the big boys. Pop, a former surfing champion himself, comes through to help his little surfer girl in a sweet surfing cram session that gets all the kids amped for the big event! This surf musical-complete with hysterical onstage surfing that's easy to stage-takes us back to a simpler time when life was keen, the music was cool and the world was about to change. Gnarly, dudes!
Performances are July 10 & 11 at 7pm and July 12 at 2pm, Tickets are $10 and avaible online or at the door. Performances will be held at the Longmont Performing Arts Complex, 513 Main Street. Hope to see you there!
