Everything's Groovy in Canton

Canton Parks and Recreation present Everything’s Groovy! 


Travel back in time this weekend and celebrate hippies and flower children of the 1960s.  Directed by Vickie Culligan, Poppins Children’s Theatre, the show is filled with music, laughs and fun.

Travis, Muriel and Alice decide to throw a free Music, Beads and Flowers Celebration.  A popular singing group, the Lemon Bugs, love the idea and donate their talent.  In no time, crazily-painted busses start arriving at Crumb’s Apple Farm, the site of the festival.

Everything is going nicely until Mrs. Porter, who hates ’The Love Generation,’ shows up and demands that the local police close it down. Although the hippies might wear buttons that say ’Never Trust Anyone Over Thirty,’ their hearts are in the right place and the celebration triumphs.

Great ’60s style songs in this musical tribute to the 1960’s.
