Chicago Children’s Theatre: Peter Rabbit & Friends 

“I'm excited to bring my children to the MANY family shows offered this season, including Peter Rabbit & Friends!” 

  • Sara Jones, programs and festivals manager 

"I grew up reading the Peter Rabbit books and I recently learned that she wrote these stories to cheer up family and friends – that same spirit continues with this wonderful production by Chicago Children’s Theatre. Each puppet and piece of the set is handmade, and there are onstage surprises triggered by pulls and cranks that truly make this an interactive show and a great introduction to the magic of the theater.”
