The Historic Masonic Theatre is hosting “I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”, a show presented by the Barter Players on Sunday, December 14th at 3pm (Free Performance)
ABOUT THE SHOW:
It’s Christmas time at the Ypsilanti Zoo, and everyone there eagerly anticipates the birth of Bella, the zoo’s first baby hippo. Seven-year-old Lois Jean, the zookeeper’s daughter, is especially excited-she’s counting on Bella to reunite her family in time for the holidays. Then the unexpected happens, and only one person can prevent tragedy. Will Santa arrive in time to save Bella-and Christmas? A heartwarming musical adventure for the whole family.
