Goodnight Moon and the Runaway Bunny, Onstage

Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia is the creative force behind this stage adaptation of Margaret Wise Brown's sixty-year-old children's classic. On tour since 2008, Goodnight Moon and the Runaway Bunny is the celebration of familiar nighttime rituals immediately recognizable by millions of children (and their parents), while The Runaway Bunny's pretend tale of leaving home evokes reassuring responses from his loving mother. The production features endearing animal puppets, striking scenic effects, and evocative music in an hour-long adaptation of the images that have delighted generations. 2 pm Sunday at the Manship Theatre. $25. manshiptheatre.org.
