Emmet Otter Returns to Goodspeed

Goodspeed Musicals, the only two time Tony Award winning theatre in the country, is proud to announce the return of last year’s hit musical production Jim Henson’s Emmet Otter.

Families across Connecticut are invited to continue this holiday tradition complimented by the beauty of the Goodspeed Opera House bedecked for the season. “Last year audiences experienced the joy and magic of Christmastime in this idyllic holiday setting. It truly is the perfect backdrop for such a timeless tale,” Executive Director Michael Price commented, “Emmet and Ma’s story of giving is one we are excited to share once again with audiences. The wonderful music, charming characters, and a cast of exceptional performers make for a festive celebration for all ages.” Emmet Otter will run Dec. through Jan. 3, 2010, at the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, Connecticut.

This year a new special event has been added: Breakfast with Santa at the Gelston House available for matinees on Dec. 6, 13, 20 and 24 at 10 am prior to the noon performance. Call the Box Office for details.
