A musical that reminds us how important it is to show kindness and caring, “Love, Ruby Valentine” comes to the Racine Children’s Theatre Friday, March 20 – Sunday, March 22, 2026.
Join Ruby and her parrot, Lovebird, as they prepare for Valentine’s Day. It’s Ruby’s favorite day of the year because she gets to say “I love you” to everyone and makes cards and treats to deliver throughout town. When she accidentally sleeps through the big day, Ruby is worried she missed her chance to spread the love. This musical adaptation of the beautiful story by Laurie Friedman reminds us that every day is the perfect day to say “I love you.”
