The Berenstain Bears and Bear Country comes alive on stage at the Manhattan Movement & Arts Center in NYC. I remember reading these classic books & even watching the television show always ready to see what adventures lay in store for Brother & Sister bear in Bear Country. Now, my little ones are able to be a part of Bear Country and interact with the Bear family.
This hour long live show is filled with singing, dancing, jokes and best of all morals. The Bear family overcomes a few obstacles and shows the audience that healthy eating, exercise, telling the truth and being careful with strangers are all ways for us to be better citizens, friends, neighbors and family members. The boys loved being V.I.B.’s (Very Important Bear) and they wore their special hats during the show and had front row seats in the “grassy” area right on the stage. They followed along, danced and giggled their way through the show. The Berenstain Bears Live is a must-see for all classic Berenstain Bear lovers and their families!
