Based on the internationally acclaimed novel, Bud, Not Buddy, this adventure follows 10-year-old Bud as he sets off on an epic journey to find his father who he believes is leading a traveling jazz band. Set in 1930s America, Bud's odyssey is filled with the joy of finding family and plenty of live jazz music.
Metro Theater Company partners with Jazz St. Louis to produce this Newbery Medal and Coretta Scott King award-winning story. Bud, Not Buddy combines a group of actors with a 13-piece jazz band performing an original score by five-time Grammy-winning jazz artist Terence Blanchard to tell this inspiring story of a boy who finds his home and a passion for music.
Direct from its premier performance at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., Bud, Not Buddy is perfect for the whole family. Performances are set on select days, February 4 - 25, Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Use promo code BUDSTLPARENT and save 20% on tickets.
