Growing Stage presents "The Pigeon Gets a Big Time Holiday Extravaganza!"

Sunday, December 06, 2026 @ 2:00pm
The Historic Palace Theatre Netcong, NJ

When Mo Willems’ characters get together for the holidays, it’s bound to be the biggest extravaganza ever! The Unlimited Squirrels deck the halls and Elephant and Piggie come ready to celebrate! But will The Pigeon join in the festivities, or will he run all the way to the North Pole in search of the greatest gift ever? Terrific tunes, silly stories, goofy gifts, audience antics: it’s all in this brand-new musical party that sleighs!
