Lyrics by Allison Gregory and Hummie Mann

“With its playful plot, clever characters, rich setting, and lively music, the play offers much for an audience to see, hear, and contemplate.” - InFocus

“With The Brementown Musicians, the Seattle Children’s Theatre has once again does what it does best: created a play that is every bit as entertaining for parents as it is for their children.” - Seattle's Child

Cast & Synopsis

6 Actors (3w/3m)

The adventure begins when Donny, a donkey too old and broken to be considered useful on the farm, escapes a sure fate and sets out to prove it’s never too late to pursue your dreams. He meets three others along the road to Brementown, the music mecca, and they form a band. But their dreams are thwarted when they discover the newly self-appointed Mayor has banned all music. The friends soon realize that it’s up to them to save music, and Brementown.
