SVPA presents the Broadway musical production of “A Year with Frog and Toad”

By Ray Gorski

Coming this holiday season, Scotts Valley Performing Arts (SVPA), invites you to join us for A Year with Frog and Toad.

A hit on Broadway, A Year with Frog and Toad was nominated for three Tony Awards – including Best Musical. Based on Arnold Lobel’s well-loved books, and featuring a hummable score by Robert and Willie Reale, this whimsical show follows two great friends – the cheerful, popular Frog and the rather grumpy Toad – through four fun-filled seasons.

Waking from hibernation in the Spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding and learn life lessons joined by some colorful companions along the way. The two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. Part vaudeville, part make believe… all charm, A Year with Frog and Toad tells the story of a friendship that endures throughout the seasons.

The jazzy, upbeat score of A Year with Frog and Toad bubbles with melody and wit, making it an inventive, exuberant and enchanting musical for the whole family.

The show will open on Friday, December 6th and run for 2 weeks.   Shows will be on Friday 12/6 at 7pm, Saturday 12/7 – 7pm, Sunday 12/8-2pm, Thursday 12/12-7pm, Friday 12/13-7pm and 2 shows on Saturday 12/14 at 2pm & 7pm.

The cast includes 15 adults and 10 young people.

Want to be involved? 

It costs about $10,000 to produce a straight play and up to $20,000 to produce a full-blown musical like this one.   We finance our productions with ticket sales, program ads, sponsorships, fund-raising events and of course, donations.  So, the easiest way to support our community theatre company is with a donation.

The next easiest way is to get involved.  It takes a village to raise a theater company.  There are many people needed to put on a show and many hands – on and off stage, make light work.  Actors, Directors, Stage Managers, Set Builders, Costumers, Prop Gatherers, Event Planners, Marketers, Kid Wranglers, Ushers, and of course Patrons, are all welcome and invited to join our merry band of thespians.

To reach us send an email to our esteemed president, Cindy Gorski at [email protected].

 

However you choose, we look forward to having you join us for A Year with Frog and Toad!
