Theater Works is pleased to announce Youth Works' production of WINNIE THE POOH.

Winnie-the-Pooh is Christopher Robin's fat little bear of Very Little Brain, who would like to drift peacefully through life, humming tunes and stopping frequently to eat "a little something." However, frantic adventures are always under foot and many problems requiring resolution with the assistance of such friends as the Eeyore, Piglet, Rabbit, Tigger and the wise old Owl. A.A. Milne's wit and special understanding of young people make this one of the most endearing children's tales of all time.
