East Bay Children’s Theatre (EBCT) will be presenting the original musical The Bluegrass Musicians of Bremen Flats in Spring of 2012.
The swamps of Mississippi are turned inside out and upside-down in this foot stomping, banjo plunking update of the classic fairy tale, “The Musicians of Bremen Town”!
Join in the hilarious hijinks, as a quartet of misfit Barnyard Animals brings Musical-Comedy relief to the sufferin’ citizens of Bremen Flats. You’ll meet Miss Mabel Morechortle, the laughingest lady in the Deep South. But beware of Pinch and Lifter, a pair of prevaricating pilferers, determined to bilk Miss Mabel out of her beloved Catfish Café.
This hootenanny of a hit show, presented by East Bay Children’s Theatre, is written by award-winning musical playwright Ron Lytle, and directed by Sue Ellen Nelsen. The combination of cut-up country characters, original musical score, and cornpone comedy makes THE BLUEGRASS MUSICIANS OF BREMEN FLATS the number-one, can’t-miss, Family Musical of the season!
Y’all come see it now. Hear?
We will be presenting The Bluegrass Musicians of Bremen Flats to the public for only TWO performances: March 17th at CUES Live and March 24th at Montclair Elementary, both at 11 AM and 1:30 PM.
