Corduroy
by Barry Kornhauser
Based on the book by Don Freeman
Oh no, Corduroy’s button has gone missing, and he can’t go home with kindhearted Lisa without it! Join the beloved teddy bear as he takes a rollicking ride up the escalator and begins a delightfully destructive romp through every section of the department store. Will he find his button at the top of a teetering store display? Will Lisa ever get to bring him home, or will the bumbling security guard catch him first? Where, oh where, is Corduroy’s BUTTON?
“An absolute delight. …You will leave CORDUROY on stage with more laughs, broader grins, and a warmer heart than you have had in a very long time.” – Talkin' Broadway
