Dr. Dolittle (Tommy Tune, tour) – repro

Leslie Bricusse’s grand-scale musical fantasy 'Dr. Dolittle' completed an extensive 2005 national touring company production that brought a spectacular, puppet-infused family extravaganza to major houses across North America. Based on the beloved children's literature and film, the narrative follows Dr. John Dolittle, a quietly eccentric country doctor who rejects human medicine after learning the secret vocabulary to converse fluidly with animals, embarking on a high-seas voyage to locate the Great Pink Sea Snail. Directed by and starring nine-time Tony winner Tommy Tune in a tour-de-force lead performance featuring giant puppet designs by Basil Twist, this project records a major commercial hit.
