Strega Nona

The beloved children's book series by Tomie dePaola comes to vibrant life in this wonderful musical tale for the whole family.
An entire Italian village just loves the old and wise Strega Nona and they visit her for all kinds of help, which she gladly gives as she sings "I Want To Help Them All!"
But Strega Nona is getting on in age and places an advertisement around town for an assistant. Both the village goofball, Big Anthony, and a young girl who dreams big, Bambolona, vie for the position of Strega Nona's new helper...with hilarious results!
All sorts of mischief and mayhem ensue when Big Anthony tries many ways to do what's right but always ends up making a big mess...a mess that only Strega Nona can take care of! Filled with colorful costumes, boisterous music, adorable animal puppetry and glorious folk dancing as the villagers celebrate life...Tomie dePaola's "Strega Nona" is a delight for the imagination and will inspire.
