A Year With Frog and Toad is a great story of friendship. There is also a lot of singing, dancing and jokes. A few of the jokes will only seem funny to older people who need a longer lifetime's experience to recognize the reference but that's probably a good thing. One ongoing gag gives real meaning to "snail mail."
The publicity blurb suggests ages 4 and up which is probably about right. It was a stretch for one 3 year old earlier today but he managed to enjoy it (and to get just a little bit scared during the thunder storm scene). Be aware, winter doesn't get much play in this production since that's when toads and frogs hibernate.
This Theatre IV production is currently running at the Barksdale Theater at Willow Lawn and will do so through December 31.
