We are thrilled to announce our new podcast for kids! The first three episodes are here.
The podcast begins with The Wind in the Willows. We hope your family will enjoy listening to this version of our popular puppet play. (You can read more about the live show here.)
• Episode One: A shy Mole goes on a wonderful picnic, has an exciting boat ride and meets new friends. Rat, who is kind and generous, loves boats, but Mr. Toad, of Toad Hall, loves cars, and he’s not a very good driver.
• Episode Two: Mole, Ratty and Badger do their best, but Toad’s reckless driving lands him in jail. Mole and Ratty rescue a baby otter.
• Episode Three: Polly, the jailor’s daughter, helps Toad get out of jail. His friends Mole, Ratty and Badger help scare a gang of bullies out of Toad Hall.
Our long time collaborator Russell Levia provides music based on themes from Percy Grainger, Vaughan Williams and Beethoven. (Plus some additional music from Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston, www.gardnermuseum.org)
