Me…Jane: The Dreams and Adventures of a Young Jane Goodall

On a beautiful day, Jane’s mother encourages her to explore her neighborhood with her stuffed monkey, Jubilee. Little does she know she’ll have a grand adventure filled with worried chickens, hungry squirrels, and friendly puppies, all while discovering the power of learning through observation and analysis.

This 55-minute performance is fun, zany, and educational, and each includes a Q&A with the cast to spark curiosity and connection.

Come see us at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium!
