Mar. 4 – 2:00 p.m. Mar. 9 – 7:30 p.m. Mar. 10 - 2:00 p.m.
If a big, hungry moose comes to visit, you might give him a muffin to make him feel at home. If you give him a muffin, he'll want some jam to go with it. When he's eaten all your muffins, he'll want to go to the store to get some more muffin mix. In this hilarious sequel to the award-winning Magik Theatre's 2009 runaway hit If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, the young host is again run ragged by a surprise guest. Join us as we see what kind of havoc a moose can make when you invite him into your home and offer him something just as sweet as - but perhaps just a little larger than - a cookie. Complete with an unforgettable dance sequence that is sure to get the audience moving, If You Give a Moose a Muffin is an adventure in storytelling that is fun for both children and adults. (Please note: If You Give a Moose a Muffin replaces the cancelled touring production of The 100 Dresses, originally at these dates and times)
ADMISSION: $7.00 to all. Group rates available.

An all-time classic comedy, "You Can't Take it With You" is full of big characters and bigger laughs!

When Alice (the "normal" daughter) announces her boyfriend's wealthy, conservative parents are coming for dinner, the family promises to behave, but when the guests show up on the wrong night, all bets are off!
