A Year with Frog and Toad
Based on Arnold Lobel’s beloved children’s books, A Year with Frog and Toad is a musical tale of two unlikely friends: the cheerful Frog, and curmudgeonly Toad. Frog and Toad take a musical journey through four colorful seasons along with their friends Snail, Turtle, and the Birds, as they enact many adventures, from rushing down a hill in a runaway sled in the winter to taking a picnic and a quiet moment in the summer. Frog and Toad discover that the differences that make them unique are also what makes their friendship so special.
