Tuck Everlasting is an inspiring tale about a young girl named Winnie Foster who discovers the magical secret of the Tuck family: that they can live forever. The show explores the concept of immortality, demonstrating that it might at first seem very desirable, but actually also have undesirable consequences.

What's Tuck Everlasting Like?

Tuck Everlasting is a new musical based off of Natalie Babbitt’s best-selling novel of the same name written in 1975. The book has sold over two million copies, demonstrating that this classic children’s story has a far-reaching impact, and the musical with full scale choreography and theatrical magic brings the timeless tale to life. The musical is perfect for igniting the imagination of young people and those who are young at heart, and the gorgeous scenic, lighting, costume, and sound design perfectly complements the musical score and fascinating story to create an entire world in which the audience can lose themselves in amazement and captivation.

Is Tuck Everlasting Good for Kids?

Yes, the show is appropriate for children for children ages 10 and up. Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the theatre.
