Thomas & Friends Live! On Stage in Thomas Saves the Day is a 90-minute musical adventure for the whole family, starring Thomas and his engine friends, Percy and Diesel and features Sir Topham Hatt, along with the people and engineers from the Island of Sodor. As a big storm rolls into the Island of Sodor, Thomas and his engine friends work together to save the island as they prepare for the Magic Lantern Festival. Encountering adventures along the way, Thomas and his friends take the audience on a journey that helps encourage life lessons such as discovery, friendship and cooperation. Thomas & Friends Live! On Stage includes new railroad-themed songs and introduces children to the magic of live performance.
