Harold & The Purple CrayonTuesday, April 20, 2010, 10:00AMStrand Theatre
A Strand-Capitol Schooltime performance. One evening, after thinking it over for some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight. So begins Harold and the Purple Crayon, the first of seven delightful picture books by Crockett Johnson, following the zany adventures of an inventive young boy. As it turned out, there wasn’t any moon that night nor was there a path to walk on, so Harold simply drew them. And thus his journey began. Resourceful and brave, Harold creates the world he wants to explore, using nothing more than a big purple crayon and his sky’s the-limit imagination. Combining life-size puppets, masks, magic and music, Harold and the Purple Crayon will delight and amaze children starting at Harold’s age, all the way up to grandparents — anyone, in fact, whose heart is young and adventurous. (Grades: Pre-K to 3rd. Ages 3-8) | May We Also Suggest: |
