CALENDAR
Children’s book author Arnold Lobel wrote the fi rst book of his classic
Frog and Toad series in 1970, and in the fashion of Matilda and Mary
Poppins, the series was turned into a musical. Playing at Springfi eld
High School this weekend, A Year with Frog and Toad follows the
adventures of two amphibian friends who are of confl icting dispo-
sitions — Frog, played by Felicia Staff ord, is an eternal optimist,
and Toad (Amanda Grimes) tends toward grumpy negativity. As one
might expect, the remaining cast of characters includes birds, a
snail, a turtle and a mouse. Since this production takes place in the
cozy Studio Theatre, reservations are recommended.
A Year with Frog & Toad shows 7:30pm Thursday, Feb. 13, & Friday,
Feb. 14, with a matinee performance at 2pm Saturday, Feb. 15, at
Springfi eld High School, 875 N. 7th St., Spfd., call 914-8095 for tix.
