This Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical follows the cheerful Frog and the rather grumpy Toad through four fun-filled seasons. Awaking from hibernation in the spring, the two great friends enjoy planting gardens, swimming in the pond, raking leaves and sledding down the hill. Along the way they meet new friends and learn the importance of forgiveness. Staying true to the spirit of the popular Arnold Lobel books, this delightful musical celebrates in the attributes that make each of us different and special.

From the producers of the Dora-nominated Toronto premiere of Altar Boyz and Jason Robert Brown’s timeless The Last Five Years, comes the hilarious new musical [title of show].   The Tony Award nominated show runs from September 22 and running until October 10, 2010 at the Toronto Centre for the Arts.

 [title of show] is a uproarious new musical comedy that follows two musical theatre writers on a quest to write a musical for the New York Musical Theatre Festival in just 3 weeks. “Delectable entertainment!” raves the The New York Times while Amazon.com calls [title of show] a “bottomless reservoir of fun”.   [title of show] follows Hunter, Jeff and their friends on their journey through the gauntlet of creative self-expression.   In the span of 90 minutes, they write and perform their show at the festival and learn lessons about themselves as people, friends and artists.   [title of show] received a 2009 Tony Award nomination for Best Book of a Musical.  With Music and Lyrics by Jeff Bowen and Book by Hunter Bell, this show is above all a love letter to musical theatre.

Passion. Talent. Drive. Desire. What will it take for this eclectic mix to bring a musical murder mystery to the stage? Take one Broadway star, add a cast of young actors with talent, a writer with attitude, a producer with no money and a publicist with a past; and you have all the ingredients for a murder...

Or maybe two?

All set to a vibrant new score, The 3rd Degree tells the tale of Sir Henry Smythe, his wife Lady Penelope and daughter Caroline; each with their secrets, each with their passions, each with their publicity shots.

Publicity shots?

Enter Robert, Andy and Elizabeth, all trying to get this group to opening night without them killing each other.
