When Pete the Cat gets caught rocking out after bedtime, the cat-catcher sends him
to live with the Biddle family to learn some manners—and boy, are they square! But
for the groovy blue cat, life is an adventure no matter where you wind up, so the
minute Pete walks in the door, he gets the whole family rocking.
The whole family, that is, except for young Jimmy Biddle—the most organized, uptight second grader ever. But when Jimmy draws a blank in art class during the last week of school, Pete is the perfect friend to help him out. Join Jimmy and Pete as they set off on an adventure in Pete’s VW Bus to find inspiration, magic sunglasses, and friendship! Recommended for ages 4-9.
The New York Times called this family-friendly show a “high-energy, irrepressibly cheerful whirl. Delightfully unorthodox.” Huffington Post raved the show is “delightful and funny with a breezy, upbeat score lively book and lyrics. Pete’s rule: Never refuse a hug. The musical deserves a big one.” Mommy Poppins said “Pete the Cat” has “nonstop action guaranteed to make kids laugh.”
