Don’t be fooled, the classic award winning book, “Frog
and Toad are Friends” turned TONY nominated Broadway Musical, A YEAR WITH FROG
AND TOAD may seem like just another play for kids, but audiences
and fellow actors will tell you –this is a fantastic show for the whole
family.

The whimsical show, produced by Chaska Valley Family
Theatre, follows two great friends — the cheerful, popular Frog and the rather
grumpy Toad — through four, fun-filled seasons.  Waking from hibernation
in the spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding, and
learn life lessons along the way. Part vaudeville, part make-believe, all
charm, A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD tells the story of a friendship that endures,
weathering all seasons. Plus, The jazzy, upbeat score bubbles with melody and
wit, making it an inventive, exuberant, and enchanting musical perfect for the
whole family to enjoy!

Arnold Lobel, who wrote the classic books Frog and
Toad are Friends, received a Caldecott Honor award and the prestigious Newbery
Honor award for his. In 2002, Adrianne Lobel, the author's daughter,
commissioned a musical based on the beloved characters and the premiered at the
Children's Theater Company of Minneapolis. The show moved to Broadway and
received three Tony nominations in 2003, including Best Musical.
