Mr. Toad's Mad Adventures

In this delightful adaptation of Kenneth Grahame’s book The Wind in the Willows, Toad of Toad Hall is an eccentric but likable chap given to ’crazes.’ His latest craze involves motorcars. Unfortunately, he smashes them up as fast as he gets them. He even steals one for a wild ride over the countryside. Naturally, this gets him into a great deal of trouble. His dear friends Badger, Rat, and Mole do their best to help, but their efforts aren’t enough, and Toad ends up in prison... after an uproarious courtroom scene. His imprisonment couldn’t please his enemies, the weasels, more, as they quickly take over Toad Hall and trash the place. After the jailer’s daughter helps Toad escape from prison, he and his friends devise a clever scheme to recapture Toad Hall from the weasels once and for all! Presented by the 9 to 15-year old students of Hartford Stage Winter Studio's Production Class.
