But Why comes to the Latchis Theatre in Brattleboro, VT on Saturday, Jan. 26 for an interactive show all about owls and other birds.

How do owls see at night? And why do they spin their heads around? How do peregrine falcons fly? But Why?, VPR’s podcast for curious kids, comes to the Latchis Theatre on Saturday, January 26 for an interactive show all about owls and other birds.

Bird Diva Bridget Butler and live owls from the Southern Vermont Natural History Museum team up with host Jane Lindholm to answer questions submitted by kids from all around the world! We’ll also learn how to hoot and fly like our feathered friends.

Join us on Saturday, January 26 at 10:30 a.m. for But Why Live! Hoots And Whistles. The show is appropriate for children of all ages, but is targeted towards kids 5-11 years old. Admission is $7 per person; children 3 and under are free. But Why, Live is made possible with support from Let's Grow Kids.
