GOODBYE, MR. MUFFIN
By Claus Mandøe
Based on a children's book by Ulf Nilsson
Created and performed by Teater Refleksion of Denmark
Directed by Bjarne Sandborg
On the Cargill Stage
February 13 - March 11, 2007
Most enjoyed by ages 2-5

Mr. Muffin's not just a guinea pig. He's a good friend, loving husband, doting dad. But now he lives by himself in his little house. Though he gets visitors and mail. He loves getting mail. And he's an absolute nut for almonds. Such amusing adventures he's had. You'll see. Like the time he and his family dared go outside. Or when he set the world record for lifting a cucumber. Those were the days, Mr. Muffin reminisces. Mr. Muffin could be any child's pet Fluffy or Spot. This sweet, gentle, touching puppet tale honors the life and death of every dear pet. And helps a little one say "goodbye."

How can this be bad? The guinea pig's name is Mr. Muffin. It's most enjoyed by ages 2-5, and I just spell it 'i-n-j-o-y-e-d' and almost kept it. I won't let my fear of guinea pigs stand in my way. But seriously, they look nothing like pigs.
