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.
This musical was created by engaging Philadelphia children, students from Eastern University, and Philadelphia-based performance artists. "Once again, this show brings together such a talented group 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 children 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 to see what the crazy crew at Yes! And... has come up with this year!"
