It’s Okay To Be Different

Stories by Todd Parr


Mermaid Theatre of Windsor, Nova Scotia marks its 50th season with the first staged adaptation of three favourite contemporary storybooks for young audiences, the hour-long production entitled It’s Okay to Be Different – Stories by Todd Parr.

Todd Parr is the author and illustrator of more than 71 books for children, including the New York Times bestsellers: The I Love You Book, The Earth Book, and The Thankful Book. His books are available in over forty countries throughout the world. He was the co-creator of the 3X EMMY-Nominated children’s television show ToddWorld™, and he has created several short films for Sesame Street. His work is published by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, a division of Hachette Book Group.

Mermaid’s new work is directed and adapted by Jim Morrow, creator of numerous internationally-acclaimed Mermaid productions. The show features a diverse cast, an innovative approach to puppetry manipulation and construction, combined with playful original music for which the company has earned worldwide praise.
