I absolutely loved The Snowy Day as a child. It is a true classic that quietly and colorfully illustrates the magical morning of a fresh snowfall. Now you have an opportunity to share the book live with your kids and help out the earthquake victimes in Haiti as well.

Here's more information from Stages Theatre Company on the special performance:

The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats

World Premiere!

Join young Peter as he explores his familiar surroundings, now magically changed by a rare, crystalline blanket of snow. A true classic of children's literature, The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats combines the world of inner-city life with the power of nature's beauty. The book received the Caldecott Award in 1963 for most distinguished picture book for children.

Perfect for all ages.
