Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus Tickets

Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus is a playful, puppetry-driven live adaptation of Mo Willems’ beloved picture book. This 50-minute family show, produced in collaboration with TheaterWorksUSA, brings humor, heart, and interactive storytelling to stages across the United States. With a script by Mo Willems and Mr. Warburton and music by Deborah Wicks La Puma, the production captures the whimsy and wit that have made the Pigeon a staple in children's literature and television.
