Goodnight Moon the Musical Extended! (photo recap & video interview)



We also had a chance to check out the show and get up close and personal on the set, at a special blogger event.   Here's our photo filled recap below.
ChiIL Mama highly recommends Goodnight Moon the Musical.   This production is a creative, high energy romp through the elation and irritation of putting littles to bed.   The whole set comes to life, with surprises that will entrance and captivate all ages.   Check it out if you haven't already.   Here's the link to Chicago Children's Theatre's main site, for tickets and more.

We're also eagerly awaiting their next offering, The Houdini Box, by the creator of The Invention of Hugo Cabret!    This production also features original music by Mark "Mucca Pazza" Messing.
