Acoustic Rooster’s Barnyard Boogie: Starring Indigo Blume

April 22, 2023 - April 23, 2023

ACOUSTIC ROOSTER’S BARNYARD BOOGIE: STARRING INDIGO BLUME

New York Times best-selling author Kwame Alexander brings two of his beloved children’s books, Acoustic Rooster and Indigo Blume, to the stage in a world premiere Kennedy Center commission. Alexander teams up with his writing partner Mary Rand Hess and long-time musical collaborator Randy Preston to tell a story about being scared, being brave, and believing in yourself. With special guests like Duck Ellington and Ms. Dairy Parton – plus Preston appearing as Acoustic Rooster – this musical adaptation will have children (and families) dancing in their seats.

TALKBACK & BOOK SIGNING WITH KWAME ALEXANDER ON APRIL 23
Join us after the final performance on Sunday, April 23rd for an audience talkback with author Kwame Alexander, followed by a book signing of Indigo Blume and the Garden City. Books will be available for purchase!

This production is made possible by generous support from the Nemeroff family. 

Running Time: 60 minutes, no intermission
