KID-FRIENDLY 'FRECKLEFACE STRAWBERRY' CHARMS AT RIVERSIDE THEATRE WORKS

It's great to be different!

Riverside Theatre Works presents “Freckleface Strawberry,” a family-friendly musical about learning to love yourself. Based on the children’s book by actress Julianne Moore, the show features sweet songs, adorable dances, and family-friendly ticket prices.

Performances are February 28 and March 7 at 7 p.m., March 1 and 8 at 2 p.m., and special school day shows March 3 and 5 at 10:30 a.m.

“Freckleface” tells the story of a redheaded girl who will do anything to get rid of her freckles. With the help of a ballerina, an athlete, a ditzy pal, a kooky teacher, and a loving mom, she discovers that everyone is sometimes insecure – and that our differences make us special.
