Skippyjon Jones: A Premiere Musical!

MEET SKIPPYJON, a Siamese cat who thinks he’s one of the birds. He enjoys sleeping in their nest, sharing their breakfast of worms, and bathing in Mrs. Doohiggy’s birdbath. In frustration, Mama Junebug Jones sends him to his room to ponder what it means to be a Siamese cat. Instead, Skippyjon discovers his alter ego – “El Skippito” – a superhero Chihuahua. Clothed in a green cape and mask, he sets off into his closet and emerges in far, far away Mexico for a rip-roaring musical adventure.

This production is recommended for children ages 4 and up. This play is going on at The Newmark Theater at 1111 SW Broadway, Downtown Portland


Date & Time
