    Kerfuffle

    Goose and Gert

    On a sunny day in the park, Gert just wants some peace and quiet. When Goose won't leave her alone, what is she to do? A play created just for very young children, Goose and Gert is a funny romp that explores friendship, opposites, and noise! Goose and Gert is a workshop co-production between The Rose Theater and Kerfuffle.

     

    Featuring live music, the play is best enjoyed by children ages 2-6 years old with their families. All performances are free! Bring your own blanket/chair.
