Beauty is in the eye of the beholder in this soaring musical adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Ugly Duckling. Written by George Stiles with music and lyrics by Anthony Drewe, this heartwarming fable follows the story of Ugly, a very different kind of duckling. Ugly’s journey of self-discovery is told with love and laughter through the colorful characters he meets along the way. This family-friendly musical will bring joy to the hearts of anyone who ever felt left out or misunderstood—only to find that being different isn’t so bad after all!
Featuring: Anthony Andino, Christi Colombo, Vicki Colombo, Krissi DeKowazan, Jed Dixon, Wyndle Dixon, Heidi Grass, Mackenzie Martin, Valencia McCraner, Kenny Miele, Rorie Oas, Nori Reed, Robert Rushin as Ugly
