"If You Give a Mouse a Cookie," with book by Laura Joffe Numberoff, adapted by Jody Davidson, will show at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 31, at the Frederick Theatre in Morris Hall.
UW-L's Department of Theatre Arts is tickled to bring to life the beloved children’s story "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" by Laura Joffe Numeroff, adapted by Jody Davidson for youth audiences this spring.
What could possibly go wrong with giving in to a seemingly innocent appeal for a cookie? That is what a puckish young boy one day finds out when a deceptively exuberant mouse comes upon him munching on his favorite treat. Suspecting nothing, he grants the mouse’s request only to find his lazy day at home turned upside down in countless attempts to appease the bossy rodent’s never-ending needs. In this humorous romp, young audiences will discover what happens when you give someone an inch and they take a mile.
"If You Give a Mouse a Cookie," with book by Laura Joffe Numberoff, adapted by Jody Davidson, will show at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 31, at the Frederick Theatre in Morris Hall.
Tickets for the general public are available at the door only one hour prior to each performance. Tickets are $5 per person.
