Overview

Synopsis

Snoopy is the sequel to You're a Good Man Charlie Brown and focuses on the life of the world's most famous beagle. Atop his kennel, Snoopy surveys the skies, scene of his triumph as a First World War flying ace. Modestly, he considers himself a genius. Stoically, he accepts that his brilliance in nearly every field of endeavor will forever go unremarked by humankind. The show contains over 15 toe-tapping tunes performed by Charlie Brown, Lucy, Sally, Linus, Peppermint Patty, Woodstock, and one loveable beagle.
