About the Show

Uncle Jeb's Farm

An original children's musical about one extraordinary day in the life of a very small creature.

The Story

One Day. One Life. A World of Wonder.

Uncle Jeb's Farm follows the life of Tica — a ladybug with just one day to live. From the moment she wakes to the moment the sun sets, Tica sets out to make her single day count, encountering a cast of colorful animal friends on a magical farm, each one carrying a lesson about courage, kindness, and what it means to belong.

Through six original songs and a story that speaks to children and grown-ups alike, the show celebrates the natural world and the connections that make even the smallest, briefest life feel full of meaning.

Funny, tender, and bursting with music, Uncle Jeb's Farm is a joyful reminder that every creature — no matter how small, no matter how fleeting — has something important to offer the world.
