Inspired by The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams, VELVETEEN, A
NEW MUSICAL introduces us to Lulu, her Gran, her beloved toys, and
a nest of legendary rabbits. Gran gives her a velveteen rabbit –just like
the one her mom had. Velveteen and Lulu form a special bond, making
some of the other toys jealous and leaving Velveteen wishing he could
live outside with the “real” rabbits he meets through the window.
Velveteen – at times thoughtful, playful at others – is an uplifting story
about the importance of being your authentic self.
