Where will your heart take you? 

Based on the award-winning book of the same name by Kate DiCamillo, this is an adventure that will capture your heart. When Edward Tulane, a china rabbit with a strong personality, falls into the ocean, he embarks on a remarkable journey of self-discovery. While flying through swirling winds, fumbling along train tracks and wrapped in the arms of children, Edward learns what it means to be truly loved and to love in return.

Content Warnings/Age Recommendations

Contains mature themes including violence in the home, death, and animal harm. This performance is recommended for ages 7 and older with parent/guardian discretion.

Themes

  • During his long, uncertain and challenging journey, Edward often finds comfort in watching the stars. They are a reminder that he does have something positive to think about when things were hard. In your life, what is something positive that you return to from time to time?
  • Since he is a toy rabbit, Edward can’t move on his own or speak aloud to others. But his inner life is rich and meaningful. How might Edward be a metaphor for the real world?
