La Jolla Playhouse 2026 POP Tour: “Colorín, Colorado”

Join the Coronado Public Library as we welcome the La Jolla Playhouse’s Performance Outreach Program (POP) team for a performance of Colorín, Colorado!

This free event is first come, first seated.

Georgie, a shy fourth-grader with a hidden talent for guitar, panics when asked to read aloud and ends up in the principal’s office, sparking an unexpected friendship with the fearless and ever-curious Inez. While Georgie worries about her grandfather in the hospital, she discovers an old story he once wrote: the magical tale of two fantastical creatures: Goyo and Gato. With help from her new BFF Inez, Georgie finds the courage to face her reading challenges and brings the story to life — just in time for the Festival de Primavera. In the end, talents are discovered, a family bond is deepened, and the story finds its perfect ending: ¡Colorín, Colorado, este cuento se ha acabado!
