The Wind in the Willows

Book, Music, & Lyrics by Michael Hulett; Adapted from the Novel by Kenneth Grahame

The Birmingham Children’s Theatre and Birmingham Park and Recreation present a free production of The Wind in the Willows in parks across Birmingham this summer. Performances for the public are May 31 through June 22 at 10 a.m. at selected public parks and are recommended for ALL AGES.

The story

The tranquility of a summer’s picnic along the riverbank is shattered by the incorrigible Toad and his enthusiasm with fast motorcars and big adventures! Toad’s bumpy path takes him to the Wide World, where he is arrested and sent to prison.mHis friends – the winsome Mole, the stalwart Rat, and the stern but forgiving Badger – search for Toad and along the way encounter their own adventures within the Wild Wood. This charming story of woodland animals and the love they share for their world and friends is brought to life with cheeky humor, audience interaction, and delightful musical numbers.
