Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center to Present IVY & BEAN

he Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center (FAC) is excited to announce the production of Ivy & Bean: The Musical based on The New York Times best?selling children's book series by Annie Barrows April 28?May 8. Directed by producing Artistic Director Scott RC Levy, this one?hour musical adaptation about the unexpected friendship between two very different second graders is suitable for all ages and most enjoyable for 3rd?5th graders.

The moment they saw each other, Bean and Ivy knew they would never like each other. Bean is loud, wild and goofy. Ivy is quiet and full of ideas. But when Bean plays a joke on her sister and needs a place to hide, Ivy comes to the rescue. When the two become a team, there's mischief and laughter at every turn - along with lessons to be learned about the challenges and joy of family, friendship and love.

The cast includes Mallori Rouse, Kevin Pierce, Tia Luber making her FAC debut, and FAC Youth Repertory alumni Casey Fetters, Gretchen Vosburgh, and Evan Lennon.
