The Very Cranky Bear, a musical by Tim McGarry and Gabbi Bolt based on the bestselling book by Nick Bland

Deep in the Jingle Jangle Jungle, four friends take shelter from the rain — only to wake a very cranky bear! Moose, Lion and Zebra are sure they know just what Bear needs, but their well-meaning efforts only make things worse. It takes quiet, thoughtful Sheep to finally listen and find the answer. Based on Nick Bland's beloved picture book, this lively musical — adapted by Tim McGarry and original music by Gabbi Bolt — brings the laughs, songs and heart of the original story to the stage in a joyful, funny show about kindness, empathy and truly listening to others. Perfect for audiences 3 - 8 years and their families. This production has been designed to tour easily, bump in and out quickly and share venues where needed.
