Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia returns to Northwest Arkansas for another of their spectacular black light shows!

The triple-bill includes the wonderful story of THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR's metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly; the fanciful account of LITTLE CLOUD's travels through the sky, and the MIXED-UP CHAMELEON's discovery of his own unique nature. The whimsical tales have enchanted several generations, and Mermaid's acclaimed stage adaptation teaches as well as entertains.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar follows the wonderful adventures of a very tiny and very hungry caterpillar that progresses through an amazing variety of foods towards his eventual metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly.

Children will delight in the antics of Little Cloud. High up in a beautiful sky, Little Cloud slips away from the rest and transforms itself into various shapes of things it sees - a sheep, and airplane, a shark and more.

In The Mixed-Up Chameleon, a little chameleon is bored with its life - sitting about predictably changing colour all day. So it decides to embark on an adventurous trip to the zoo. Upon seeing the beautiful animals there, the little chameleon tries changing to look like each one of them.

Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia presents The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Other Eric Carle Favourites, adapted, directed and designed by Jim Morrow, music by Steven Naylor, and narrated by Gordon Pinsent. Ages: 4 - 7

NEW! Also, consider attending a Family Workshop with Northwest Arkansas' own Tricycle Theatre after the performance. Click here to learn more.
