The Theater at the Long Island Children's Museum presents My Butterfly on Saturdays and Sundays through early June.

About the show: 
There is small world around us of elves and fairies. Meet Shai, the newest garden elf, who is working for strict head elf Bob. Shai is left to clean up a human garden filled with the weeds. When Shai accidently cuts down the milkweed (after all it has weed in the name), Mary the fairy appears and shows Shai the eggs on the bottom of the milkweed leaf. Shai takes on the care of the eggs to raise them as her own, but what will they become? Shai struggles to defend the eggs from aphid bugs, and wasps. Should the milkweed have been cut down? What are the eggs that Shai and Mary have discovered? This musical tale answers all these questions.
