New York City has got a NEW star in town. And, he’s fluffy, adorable, and loves honey.

That’s right — it looks like the Hundred Acre Wood is making a home in a theater with a brand new show!

According to D23, Disney will be bringing Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Adaptation to Times Square’s Theatre Row this fall! When performances start on October 21st, you’ll be able to see all your friends from the Hundred Acre Wood through life-size puppetry with music by the Sherman Brothers and A.A. Milne.

Jonathan Rockefeller has developed and presented the show after productions of The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show and Paddington Gets in a Jam. He excitedly stated that, “I am thrilled to be entrusted to create a new classic for the stage, for new audiences as they join our adventure into the Hundred Acre Wood. And what a grand adventure!”

He went on to note, “Disney’s Winnie the Pooh material is so incredibly rich, that after more than half a century, I doubt there is anyone who hasn’t been profoundly moved or feels a personal connection with the wonderful characters of Pooh. The question we posed ourselves when creating this intimate musical adaptation was, ‘How do we bring Pooh from the screen and onto the stage in an entirely fresh and new way, yet one that still pays homage to the deep canon of Winnie the Pooh iconography?’

“The answer was easy…well, conceptually easy, in theory…we needed to create incredible, brilliant, and amazing puppetry that makes it impossible to believe the characters aren’t real. Audiences can expect their hearts will be captivated by the characters, and their imaginations will soar with these life-size puppets.”

Guests can also participate in an exclusive ticket pre-sale for the show beginning June 1st through TodayTix and then June 14th for the general public. You can watch a short trailer for the upcoming show below!
