Grumpy Monkey

Who could be grumpy on such a beautiful day? Jim the Chimpanzee—that’s who! The oft-grouchy protagonist of Suzanne Lang’s New York Times bestselling children’s series comes to life in a family-friendly stage adaptation by Interlochen Arts Academy Instructor of Theatre Laura Mittelstaedt. Arts Academy theatre students star in a heartwarming production that will help kids of all ages learn how to cope with big—and sometimes confusing—feelings.
