Ghost

New Production!
This production was created in part through special funding from Metro Nashville Arts Commission's Creation Grant program.
"No hesitating, the sun is waiting outside your door... let's go explore!"
Money is tight and times are tough in the town of Stillwater. With no houses to paint till next spring, Mr. Popper is stuck at home daydreaming of Arctic adventures, while Mrs. Popper must scrimp and save just to put beans on the table. But with the unexpected arrival of a spirited penguin named Captain Cook, a new horizon opens before them and before long the Poppers have a snowdrift in the living room and a dozen delightful penguins living in the house. With an ever-increasing bill for canned shrimp, what can the wonderfully imaginative Poppers do but train the penguins and take the show on the road!
It's a flipper-flapping musical tale that will make you believe in the power of ingenuity and determination.
Parents, you can review our Parent Tip & Info page which helps you know if your child is ready for the show.
