THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR
and other Eric Carle Favorites
By The Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia
March 7 & 8, 2008

Using several unique styles of fanciful puppetry, the vibrant world of famed children's author Eric Carle comes to life on the Long Wharf Theatre stage.

Children will rejoice in the stories of a newborn caterpillar eating his way through the days of the week, the little cloud changing into an airplane, a shark and a rabbit dreamily floating through the daytime sky, and a bored chameleon that learns after a day at the zoo that the best thing to be is himself.

Mermaid Theatre's unique adaptations of children's literature emphasize imaginative design elements, original music and challenging texts.
