Join Curious George, the inquisitive, engaging monkey-star of books, movies, and the award-winning PBS television show in a brand-new musical – Curious George: The Golden Meatball.

On All-You-Can-Eat Meatball Day, George helped his friend, Chef Pisghetti, cook some delicious meatballs and serve them to the hungry crowd. But this year, the crowd had vanished! Something was keeping people away... something pretty big. And that something was Phinneas T. Lightspeed and his speedy Meatballs-o-Matic machine. In despair, Chef Pisghetti vows to cook no more. Determined to help his friend, George goes on a mission to enter the Chef's meatballs in the world-famous Golden Meatball Contest in Rome.

With every swing and flip, George takes the audience through a fun-filled adventure, in which he learns more about Rome, meatballs, and the secret ingredient to cooking!
