Henry and Mudge Coming to Easton

Submitted to Easton Patch:

The Easton YMCA is proud to host a live musical theatre family event – “Henry and Mudge” on Sunday, May 20th at 2:00 p.m. at the Olmsted/Richardson School Auditorium in Easton.

Moving from the city to a house out in the country can be really tough, just ask Henry. He badly misses Annie, his best friend, and is having trouble finding a playmate in his new neighborhood. Luckily Mom and Dad buy him a great, big, 180lb. slobbery dog – Mudge – with whom he can share all kinds of adventures.

The 60-minute musical, based on the best-selling books by Cynthia Rylant, is appropriate for children ages four and up. It will be performed by “Theatreworks USA”, America's largest and most prolific professional not-for-profit theatre for young and family audiences.

Tickets are on sale now in person or by phone at the Easton Y, 508-238-9758. Seating is by general admission, and tickets are $10 each. Doors open at 1:30pm.

All proceeds from the event will benefit the Y’s Strong Kids Campaign, which provides financial assistance for memberships, childcare, recreation programs and camps for Easton families and children in need. The Easton YMCA is committed to the development of a strong spirit, mind and body, and to enrich the quality of life for all in our communities.

This event is generously supported by the Easton Local Cultural Council.
