Applause Series
ABOUT THE SHOW
Grades preK-4
Inspired by the beloved literature classic, Velveteen is a magical new musical about love, belonging and growing up. As the story begins Lulu confronts a big change, having just moved in with her grandmother. To make her a little more comfortable, Gran gives her a velveteen rabbit – just like the one Lulu’s mom had. Velveteen and Lulu form a special bond, making some of the other toys jealous and leaving Velveteen wishing he could live outside with the “real” rabbits he meets through the window. The classic story gets a modern upgrade as Lulu and Velveteen navigate growing up and connection, technology and authenticity, belonging, and what it truly means to be “real” in today’s world.
