Off-Broadway’s Addy & Uno Starts October 28 at Farmers Alley Theatre
Southwest Michigan families searching the events calendar for family-friendly entertainment will find an amazing show in Addy & Uno, coming in late October.
Straight from off-Broadway, Farmers Alley Theatre is honored to be the first regional theatre to produce this family musical.
The show features Uno, a child with autism, as he prepares for his school’s math competition. By his side are his friends with varying disabilities – ADHD, visual, hearing, and physical impairment.
Through puppets and engaging music, Addy & Uno is a heartfelt and hilarious journey celebrating hope, big dreams, and the beauty of differences.
Addy & Uno Highlights
Addy & Uno features amazing puppets, catchy songs, and an inspiring message.
With a score full of fun music, the expressive puppets from the original New York run, and a powerful message about friendship, Addy & Uno is sure to delight audiences of all ages.
Director Shannon Hill can’t wait to share this production with SWMI families:
Addy and Uno is a celebration! Everyone will find a character to which they can relate. Come sing, dance, and sign with us as we learn to love what makes us unique!
