Bravache teases Robert
Robert meets Gareth	Good buddies!
Bravache teases Gareth, too; but this might not be a good idea...

Gareth, the Gentle Gragoyle is a children's musical written by Bill Helder, music and lyrics by Richard Addesso, directed by Evelyn Weymouth; a joint production of Riverwalk and All-of-us Express.

Join us as we visit a cathedral town in the south of France. Gareth, a small and not very fierce gargoyle, has watched from his perch high atop the cathedral while the town bully makes life miserable for Robert, a poor orphan. When Gareth decides that undersized though he may be he will help Robert, the results are fun to watch. Together Gareth and Robert find a way to solve Robert's problem and Gareth gets an unexpected reward.
