Curious George

Lovable Little Monkey Join the inquisitive Curious George, star of books, movies and the award-winning PBS television show in this delightful new musical based on the books by Margret and H.A. Rey, and the play owned by Universal Stage Productions. All-You-Can-Eat Meatball Day came just once a year. George had been waiting all month for that day, a day almost bigger than his birthday! On Meatball Day, George helped his friend Chef Pisghetti cook some delicious meatballs, and serve them to the hungry crowd. But this year, the crowd had vanished! Something was keeping people away. Something pretty big. And that "something" was Phinneas T. Lightspeed and his speedy Meatballs O'Matic machine. In despair, Chef Pisghetti vows to cook no more. Determined to help his friend, George goes on a mission to enter the Chef's meatballs in the world-famous Golden Meatball Contest... in Rome. With every swing and flip, George takes the audience through a fun-filled adventure in which he learns more about Rome... and meatballs... and the "secret ingredient" to cooking! Curious George: The Golden Meatball, a new musical based on the books by Margret and H.A. Rey, and the play owned by Universal Stage Productions, features a book and lyrics by Jeremy Desmon with original music by John Kavanaugh. This production was originally directed and choreographed by Marcia Milgrom Dodge (Broadway's Ragtime, Theatreworks USA's Suessical). The show features costumes by Tracy Christenson (Lortel nominee for Theatreworks' Seussical) with sets by Michael Schweikardt.
