As Stuart navigates a world much bigger than himself – from sailing toy boats in Central Park to searching for his beloved bird friend Margalo –he teaches us all that size doesn’t measure spirit. Packed with humor, heart and a dash of daring, Stuart Little is a delightful tale for audiences of all ages. The acting ensemble plays many human and animal roles in a series of delightful scenes that make up the marvelous maneuverings of a mild-mannered mouse trying to survive in a “real people’s world.”
