MANSFIELD — The Renaissance Performing Arts Association presents Goldilocks and The Three Bears, the next installment of its beloved Teddy Bear Concert Series, on April 26 at 2:30 p.m. at Theatre 166, located next to the historic Renaissance Theatre.

This delightful musical reimagining of the timeless fairy tale is designed especially for children ages 2–10 and their families.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears presents the familiar fairy tale through music and narration, allowing the audience to follow Goldilocks’s curious journey into the Bears’ home.

As the story unfolds through songs and storytelling, Goldilocks samples porridge, chairs, and beds that are each too big or too small before discovering what is “just right.” The performance concludes with the return of the Bear family and Goldilocks’ realization about respecting others’ homes and belongings.
