A musical adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's story of The Ugly Duckling.

Step into the enchanting world of "A Poultry Tale," where the vibrant spirit of Spring dances through the farmyard, accompanied by the whimsical melodies of newfound friendships and self-discovery.

Meet Drake, a spirited duck whose mind often wanders beyond the confines of the farm, and Ida, the nurturing mother hen who cherishes her precious eggs. As the eggs near hatching, anticipation fills the air, but when the peculiar Ugly emerges, the farm's harmony is momentarily disrupted. Despite his unconventional appearance, Ugly's journey unfolds into a heartwarming tale of acceptance and belonging.

As Ugly navigates a world that often misunderstands him, he encounters a colorful cast of characters—from the mischievous Cat to the wise military geese, each offering a unique perspective on life and love. Alongside Ugly, audiences embark on a transformative adventure filled with laughter, tears, and ultimately, the triumph of embracing one's true identity.

With spellbinding songs like "Hold Your Head Up High" and "Warts and All," the musical paints a poignant portrait of resilience and the enduring power of love. From tender moments of self-reflection to exhilarating escapades, Honk! promises an unforgettable theatrical experience that will leave hearts soaring and spirits uplifted.

Join us as we celebrate the beauty of diversity and the unbreakable bonds that unite us all in this extraordinary tale of courage, compassion, and the joy of being different. Don't miss your chance to be swept away by the magic of Honk! - a musical masterpiece for the young and the young at heart.
