Munsch Upon a Time
Prairie Theatre Exchange is reviving our 30 year tradition of presenting the wildly-popular stories of Robert Munsch as exuberant live theatre! Bring the family to PTE for some cool time travel where the books come to life on stage with the help of Professor Pim’s time machine, which zips back and forth 50 years — all with lots of high-octane energy and loads of laughs. You’ll see five favourite stories from Canada’s most beloved children’s author — including The Paper Bag Princess, David’s Father, The Fire Station, Give Me Back My Dad! and It’s My Room! — presented with the larger-than-life, kid-friendly entertainment our young audiences have always experienced in our theatre.
Suitable for Ages 3 to 11
Babes in Arms: children under the age of 2 do not need their own ticket. At the age of 2 and over, children require a ticket for their own seat.
Pajama Parties!
Enjoy complimentary cookies and milk after all 7:00 pm shows, compliments of Winnipeg Kinsmen. Pajamas and stuffies welcome!
Tickets: $18 each, 4 pack for $65
(Note: 4 Pack discount applied automatically at checkout)
THE PTE CHILDREN’S BOOK DRIVE
PTE is teaming up with McNally Robinson and The North West Company to bring books to children in Northern Manitoba. It’s our way of sharing the love of storytelling with communities who can’t come to Winnipeg.
Bring a new book to PTE’s Book Bin during Munsch Upon a Time or visit McNally Robinson to buy and leave a book for the collection.
In January, all the donated books will be delivered by The North West Company throughout communities in North.
