ABOUT THE SHOW
The Velveteen Rabbit is a heartfelt story about what it truly means to become “real.” Set in a loving home, a shy toy rabbit learns—through friendship, imagination, and unconditional love—that being real isn’t about being perfect… it’s about being deeply loved. With a magical Fairy, a lively group of nursery toys, and a Child who needs comfort and hope, this play is warm, meaningful, and full of heart for audiences of all ages.
