RUNAWAY RUE
Runaway Rue
Musical Fairytale with Puppets and People
Concept, Book, Lyrics by Stacey Weingarten
Music & Addt'l Lyrics by Angela Parrish
When Rue’s Furever mom drops a bombshell--they’re moving across the country!— Rue is devastated. Even Rue’s Fairy Dogmother can’t change her mind about moving to Hollywoof, especially when Rue learns she’s moving in with a new step-dad and his a-little-too-perfect and lovable puppy named Jack. A family she never bargained for, a place that doesn’t feel like home... What’s a dog to do, but run away? Alone and confused on the streets of LA, Rue befriends a self-assured explorer cat named Moo Kitty before eventually returning home to a very worried mom… but not before realizing that Furever Home is a place in your heart, and Furever Family is the one you choose.
This family-friendly pop musical is told by a colorful cast of puppets and people and aimed at kids 4-10 (but it’s fun for co-viewing of all ages, like a Disney/Pixar film).
