WHO WILL SAVE THE LITTLE MOUSE?!
When Bastien, an adventurous young French boy, loses his last baby tooth, he is ready to stay up all night to meet The Little Mouse. However, when a human-sized rat appears in her stead, Bastien learns that The Little Mouse has been imprisoned by the Evil Queen. Bastien and his new friends adventure into the Kingdom of the Rats to save The Little Mouse, learning magic and life lessons along the way. Children, parents, family members, and friends of all ages will experience a one-of-a-kind musical adventure mixing culture with problem solving, morals, and tenacity.
Reviews from the french production of …the little mouse:
“I rediscovered my child-like soul through this show; it is simply genial, funny, and take you on a ride. We all followed Bastien’s adventure in marvel.”
“A show full of energy; no time to get bored, even for the adults! Transportative musical passages; a very nice moment for our family.”
“If you’re looking for a musical with a wonderful story, then Looking For the Little Mouse is the one to not miss! It’s original, hysterical, dynamic, and the music is incredible. The characters are excellent and perfectly suited to the world of the show. Inventive sets and wonderful use of the space. Though the show lasts for 60 minutes, it goes by at breakneck speed; children and adults alike are completely enchanted, taken into the musical spiral and the suspense of this piece with many surprises! My child completely identified with the young main character of Bastien, a sort of Indiana Jones Jr.; this show made him impatient to lose his next tooth! In brief, a rhythmed, acrobatic production accompanied by magic and incredible music make this show not to be missed!”
“Superbe! Our family had a wonderful time, especially our children aged 2-6 years old. The youngest loved the songs and the two older ones followed the show wide eyed and mouths agog :-) This show is worth more than any movie ticket; I recommend that everyone give it a look!”
“This is the first time I’ve ever seen an entire audience—children and adults—glued to the stage from the beginning to the end of a show.”
“I haven’t laughed that hard in a long while”
