How do we hop off the treadmill, reclaim our "inner howl" or expand our world beyond "Polly want a cracker?" Come along with Hamster, Goldfish, Dog, Frog, Turtle, Parrot and Horse as they visit veterinarian Dr. Alfred J. McGee, each wanting to change his or her life markedly. Animal Tales, which is directed by Grethe Barrett Holby, is a Disney-length, two-act opera-musical about daring to be different, overcoming stereotypes and finding purpose and happiness in life, all told through song, dance and puppetry — a rambunctious masterpiece bursting with fun, optimism and insight into the human journey. Audiences of all ages will delight in its optimistic but provocative look at life.
