If You Give a Mouse a Cookie asks what will happen if you do just that. The short answer is that the mouse will continue asking for things, have a lot of fun, and in the process destroy your house. But along the way, this children's theater production currently playing on the Arden Theatre Company's Arcadia Stage teaches a good lesson about cause and effect. The play is based on the beloved children's book written by Laura Numeroff and illustrated by Felicia Bond. On stage, two actors bring the story to life with all of its hilarious antics and the addition of physical comedy.

Arden Theatre Company's presents If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, an adaptation of Laura Joffe Numeroff's beloved bestselling book, from April 14 - June 13, 2010 as part of Arden Children's Theatre.
