Event Details: Three contemporary stories by New York Times bestselling author and illustrator Todd Parr come to life with Parr’s signature blend of playfulness and sensitivity. Adapted and staged for young audiences by The Mermaid Theater, this hour-long production features three books from his collection. “It's Okay to Be Different” cleverly delivers important messages of acceptance, understanding, and self-confidence. “The Earth Book” is a sweet homage to our beautiful planet inspiring everyone to do their part to keep the Earth happy and healthy. “This is My Hair” is a funny exploration of how silly hair can be and that no matter how your hair looks, you should always feel good about yourself. These stories encourage early literacy, enhance emotional development, celebrate multiculturalism and promote character growth.

Study guides for all of the Smart Stage Matinees will be available for download prior to each production.

$3.00 Lap Tickets are available for purchase for children 12 months and under, only available at the Broward Center's AutoNation Box Office. Everyone in the theater must have a ticket.
