Set in a vibrant Florida lagoon, the story follows a family of flamingos — Mami, Papi, and their children, Leo and Anita. When a hurricane separates the family, Leo and Anita set out on a musical adventure to reunite, encountering dolphins, gators, and humans along the way! This delightful, bilingual, new production blends humor and heart, offering valuable lessons on family, language, identity, and acceptance!

student Matinees

American Stage offers a number of special performances for student audiences through our Student Matinee program, including live onsite productions and digital productions for your students.

Experiencing live theatre empowers us all to be bolder, wiser, and more compassionate on stage and in life. Through our student matinee program, many students have the opportunity to see a play for the first time, and to foster a love for powerful storytelling and the performing arts.  We select plays in our season that support what local educators are teaching in their classrooms.

About the Show:

"Mr. Wolfe is the kind of satirist, almost unheard of in today's timid theater, who takes no prisoners" - New Yorker

Redefining our ideas of what it means to be African American in contemporary America. “The Colored Museum,” a satire, takes us on a journey through eleven “exhibits” that illuminate African American stereotypes old and new and return to the powerful soul and spirit of what it means to be African American citizens.

Age recommendation: Grades 6-12

Complimentary tickets to 1 chaperone per 10 students booked
