The Velveteen Rabbit, Dorset Playhouse, Dec 7, 8, 9

The Dorset Playhouse bring back an old favorite, “The Velveteen Rabbit”, a delightful musical adaptation of the classic children’s book by Margery Williams. “The Velveteen Rabbit” follows the travails of a Velveteen Rabbit that, after the holidays, finds itself in the toy cupboard with the other toys. It discovers a toy that is really loved can become real. Scoffed at by most of the other toys, the Rabbit feels equally out of place when it is plopped down among the live animals of the forest until it learns just what love is.

Performances will be held on December 7 and 14 at 7:30 p.m. and on December 8, 9, 15 and 16 at 2:00 p.m.

For more information call the Dorset Players’ business office at (802) 867-5570.
