Wind in the Willows

Last night Roo and I attended a children’s musical, The Wind in the Willows, produced by Tokyo Theatre for Children. I don’t recall reading this children’s classic as a kid. Not sure what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised by the delightful story of a group of woodland animal friends. Mr. Toad, full of folly, finds himself in a pinch. His best friends, rat, mole and badger, who love him in spite of his poor choices, venture beyond their comfort zone to rescue him. Allowed to interact with the actors in what was a very casual setting, the children enjoyed shouting answers to silly questions. Roo had fun!
