A Sick Day for Amos McGee

Amos McGee is the kindest, most thoughtful zookeeper you’ll ever meet. Every day, he makes time for his animal friends—running races with the tortoise, sitting quietly with the shy penguin, and offering a handkerchief to a sniffling elephant. But when Amos wakes up feeling under the weather, it’s the animals’ turn to show how much they care. This heartwarming tale of friendship, empathy, and reciprocity comes to life with gentle humor and endearing characters—reminding us all of the joy in caring for others.

WeeFolks Show perfect for children of ages 4-8 years old. In the Wee Folks Theatre pre-K and elementary audiences are introduced to structured theatrical performances. Shows in this space often come from the pages of favorite storybooks and classic fairy tales updated for today’s children. Usually (though not always) musical and/or interactive, audiences in Wee Folks are encouraged to react audibly and help our main characters on their story journey. Audiences sit on carpeted risers in this room created for children to enjoy theatre in a space designed for them. And with our Sensory Room right next door, kids who need a break have an easy place to reset mid-show.
