Centenary Stage Company’s Young Audience Series returns with A Year With Frog and Toad

HACKETTSTOWN, NJ (Warren County) — Centenary Stage Company’s Young Audience Series returns for the 2023-2024 season with A Year with Frog and Toad September 28 through October 2.

A Year with Frog and Toad tells the story of two friends, the cheerful and popular Frog, and the rather grumpy Toad. Waking from hibernation in the Spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding and learn life lessons along the way.

The two friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. Part vaudeville, part make believe, A Year with Frog and Toad tells the story of a friendship that endures throughout the seasons.

The Centenary Stage Company’s Young Audience Series (YAS) is part of the professional Centenary Stage Company’s mission to serve the region’s youth with performances and workshops throughout the year.

Several times a year, the Young Audience Series offers stage adaptations of classic children’s literature at the Centenary Little Theater located in the Seay building at 400 Jefferson Street Hackettstown, NJ 07840 on the campus of Centenary University. In addition to “in-house” performances the Young Audience Series offers a selection of productions available for touring.
