What would you do if it was your job to make sure the lions and tigers got along? To make sure that the rivers run the right way and the snow falls in the right season? Find out what happens when we don't take care of the earth the way we should in Yes! And…'s second annual A Winter Sort of Thing, a brand new winter musical for kids and their adults, January 29 – February 1 at Eastern University. Chosen as a top weekend pick by the Philadelphia Inquirer in 2008, Yes! And…'s A Winter Sort of Thing – The Clean Green Machine presents the perfect family event, with the opportunity to meet and interact with the characters in the lobby before the show. Featuring a talented cast of children and adults, the show will keep everyone on their toes with fast-paced dances, catchy tunes, and crazy winter adventures. Created by engaging Philadelphia children, mostly from Yes! And…'s programs in Chestnut Hill, Mt Airy and Brewerytown students from Eastern University and Philadelphia-based performance artists, performers participate in a series of collaborative arts workshops to come up with a storyline to create an all original show. “Once again, this show brings together such a talented group of kids and adults with such a variety of life experience,” says Co-Director and Playwright Brooke Sexton, “when the actors come together, their differences fade and they bring such incredible creative energy to the stage.” “My kids could not stop talking about this show last winter and were singing the songs for weeks,” says parent Rebekah Barrus of Delaware, “We can't wait see what the crazy crew at Yes! And… has come up with this year!”
