Journey Theater presents A Year with Frog and Toad

Opening night for A Year with Frog and Toad, presented by Journey Theater, is Feb. 19 in Battle Ground, and there will be performances through the rest of that week and the following week, as well

A fun story about the year in the life of two great friends will be presented by Journey Theater later this month in Battle Ground.

A Year with Frog and Toad, which was nominated for three Tony Awards, including Best Musical, will be performed by local artists. Opening night is Thursday, Feb. 19 at Manor Evangelical Church in Battle Ground.

Based on Arnold Lobell’s well-loved books, and featuring a hummable score by Robert and Willie Reale, this whimsical show follows two friends – the cheerful, popular Frog, and the grumpy Toad.
