Max and Ruby Bunny Party Tour

Monday, January 24th, 2011

Koba Entertainment proudly welcomes the newest addition to its family of touring musicals - Max & Ruby: Bunny Party!  After a sold-out tour across western Canadian cities, Max and Ruby are set to make their way east to over 20 cities this coming March.

It’s a surprise party for someone special, and bunny siblings Max and Ruby have a-million-and-one things to do before the big event. Join in the fun as they embark on a musical bus ride to East Bunnyhop General Store, where they deliberate on what to buy for the Super Duper Special Birthday Guest. Max & Ruby never quite want the same thing and their plans always collide - with hilarious results!

Back at home, Louise arrives with her beauty kit and everyone gets a makeover - even Max! When everything is all set for the party, Ruby discovers some uninvited guests including an engaging Robot, a giant Spider, and an adorable Slug.

Who could the mystery guest be? Find out by joining Max & Ruby in this lively theatrical production adorned with exquisite costuming, rich colorful sets, and original songs that will have the whole audience singing and hopping along. Celebrate the universal nature of sibling relationships with Max & Ruby: Bunny Party!

About Max & Ruby Live! On Stage

Max & Ruby: Bunny Party is a brand new live show by Koba Entertainment, the producers behind other memorable theatrical productions including The Backyardigans: Sea Deep in Adventure and Toopy and Binoo and the Marshmallow Moon.

After taking Europe by storm, Franklin and the Adventures of the Noble Knights is coming home to sweep the nation in its inaugural Canadian tour! This brand new live musical theatre production by Koba Entertainment will lead audiences through the most heroic expedition that Franklin and his friends, Bear, Snail, Beaver, Fox, and Rabbit have ever embarked on.

 

Franklin and the Adventures of the Noble Knights made its debut at the illustrious Grand Rex Theatre in Paris, France in the fall of 2008. After a run of 40 successful shows, Franklin has returned this fall to France once again for another 85 shows; this time with stops in Switzerland and Belgium. The success of the tour abroad has sparked excitement for the show in Canada and creators are thrilled to bring this compelling story about acceptance, compassion and friendship to families coast to coast.

 

Franklin and the Adventures of the Noble Knights boasts a team of award winning creators – Patti Caplette (director/co-writer/choreographer), Lawrence Mirkin (co-writer), Rebecca Hodgson (set designer) and Florence Kohiarty (composer/lyricist), and is inspired by the literary creation of Paulette Bourgeois and Brenda Clark.
