Captain Louie, Jr.

Prepare for a wild adventure with Louie and his friends in Captain Louie Jr., a culmination of the fall Broadway Adventure class with DMR Adventures. The performances will take place on October 31 at 2:00 p.m. and November 1 at 5:00 p.m in the Batten Building at Peabody School. A special autism-friendly performance will take place on November 1 at 2:00 p.m.

After moving to a new neighborhood, Louie finds himself lonely, the only companion by his side a red toy airplane. Missing the friends of his old neighborhood, Louie makes the plan to escape to his old neighborhood using his imagination. An unlikely turn of events leads Louie on the adventure of a lifetime, resulting in a night of costumed fun, singing, and laughter. This heartwarming story is perfect for families and kids of all ages this fall, and a nice addition to or alternative for traditional Halloween plans.

Captain Louie Jr. is adapted from the children's book The Trip by Ezra Jack Keats. It is written by Anthony Stein, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. The musical made its Off-Broadway debut in 2005.
