TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16
FOR TEACHERS WITH STUDENT GROUPS
 NEW! Brandywine Zoo and The Grand Opera House have partnered to bring you Giggle, Giggle, Quack and Curtain Call: Critter Categories. In the hilarious musical Giggle, Giggle, Quack, Farmer Brown has left his city-slicker brother in charge of his farm while he takes a much-needed vacation. He's left detailed instructions on how to take care of the animals but, when Duck does some re-writing, the result is madcap musical mutiny.
See the show and then join the Brandywine Zoo for its Curtain Call program, available only to Giggle, Giggle, Quack ticket holders at The Grand on the day of the show. Learn about the differences between pets, farm friends, and wild animals in this fun program full of cool facts, puppets, an interactive game and, of course, several live animals. It's like getting two field-trips in one!
