This new adaptation of Alice brings a Wild Rabbit, a Cater-Piller and the Queen of Hearts together in a wonderland of colors and words. Alice and her friends supply lots of fun, playful energy, sweet music and clever word play on this trip through dreamland. Along the way, Alice discovers that a land without rules and logic is not really a Wonderland at all. A very "child-friendly" musical adaptation that is perfect for the whole family. Rudolph It’s the Holiday season and the North Pole is buzzing with excitement. Santa is about to pick a new leader for the sleigh team. There are so many talented reindeer. Who will win the most coveted spot on the team? Donor is the strongest, Comet is the fastest, Dancer never gets lost, but poor Rudolph only has a nose so bright. Come along with us as the Reindeer Games begin. A delightful new holiday musical.

It’s the Wolf, Big-Bad to be specific, that’s who! Jack and the Beanstalk May 31 - July 31, 2010 This new, musical adaptation of the classic children’s story will incorporate music and movement to create an enchanted world of dancing cows, hysterical chickens, a singing harp, magical beans, and a Giant who lives in a castle in the sky.

By the end of this special tale, the cow is returned, the chicken learns how to lay golden eggs and the silly Giant teaches Jack a valuable lesson about dealing with others. |
