A Year with Frog and Toad: Pay What You Can Show!

  • The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine 250 Thompson's Point Road Portland, ME 04102 (map)

A Year with Frog and Toad

Music by Robert Reale. Book and lyrics by Willie Reale. Based on the books by Arnold Lobel. 

Part vaudeville, part make believe, and all charm, A Year with Frog and Toad tells the story of a friendship that endures throughout the seasons. Follow the cheerful, popular Frog and his friend, the rather grumpy Toad, as they plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding, and learn life lessons along the way. This Tony-nominated Broadway hit is sure to enchant families with its bubbly score and heartwarming story.

 Ideal for ages 3-10 and their families. Tickets are $15 per person for adults and children. The Museum & Theatre is offering this performance as PAY WHAT YOU CAN so anyone can attend the show without financial barriers. Audience members are welcome to reserve a seat by paying full price. To apply PAY WHAT YOU CAN to your ticket, please select "Pay What You Can at The Door" when reserving your tickets.

This performance will be interpreted in ASL. ASL interpretation for the season is provided by the Margaret E. Burnham Charitable Trust.

 A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD - TYA is presented with special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com
