Make Way for Ducklings

Music & Lyrics by William Yanesh
Directed by Ashleigh King
Mr. and Mrs. Mallard are exhausted from their search for a starter home when they land in the Boston Public Garden as a potential home. Surprised by a few conditions in the Garden, the Mallards move on to continue their search until their baby ducklings are born. When the ducklings begin to explore the world around them, the challenges of parenthood in the busy Boston environment create a fun bit of family drama. A classic story for all ages, this world premiere musical celebrates family, Boston, children and the beings who make an unfamiliar place a home. adventuretheatre-mtc.org/in-person-productions-2021-2022-season-make-way-for-ducklings
