Nutshell Plot:

The musical opens on the top floor of a towering downtown office block, where “The Boss” (a media mogul) and his henchmen plot to rule the world by capturing the minds of the children.

 

We flash to the suburbs, where three very different siblings ("Sisters") are ordered by their frazzled parents to do their homework at the public library.  Cindy, the youngest, is awakened from an unauthorized nap by the magical library "Bookworms", who tell her that when children stop reading, Story Land gets in trouble. The White Rabbit ("It's Late") appears in the library to summon the Bookworms to the Queen's meeting and an entranced Cindy tags along.  Her siblings arrive just in time to follow the group through the magic bookshelves and into Story Land!

 

The rest of the show is a boisterous, comic adventure through distorted "Nursery Rhyme Land", Fairy Tale Land and Wonderland. 

 

Fabulous fun characters include Red Riding Hood, the three (very different) Little Pigs and their (very different) wives who reluctantly tolerate their family as they are forced to live together in Mr. & Mrs. Perfect Pig’s brick house ("We Are Family") ; “Ham” (pardon the pun) actor, Clarence de (Big Bad) Wolfe (newly vegetarian) and his Hollywood agent wife who don’t want to be stereotyped; Snow White, who tries to teach the mixed bag of dwarves and Goldilocks how to change their lives for the better ("Change For The Better") by practicing empathy; the "Mean Queen", who used to be kind, sweet Princess Rose, before the evil spirit in her mirror, Mirrorstopheles, took control of her personality, much to the dismay of her Ladies-in-Waiting.  

And more …

 

The Queen of Hearts’ courtroom is the setting for the climactic ending, when the Real World invades Story Land. 

 

In the epilogue, Cindy awakens from the dream (or was it?) and the siblings leave the library with a newfound determination to read more books.

Performance Package information

 

Nutshell plot:

There are "Strange Happenings" up at Muck Hall, the derelict mansion on the hill.  The town counsel is inundated with "Complaints" and two realtors are fighting to sell the property ("You Gotta Sell That House!").  The local secret detective club (of kids, teens or other unlikely zealous sleuths, depending on your cast) ("I Love A Mystery")  takes on the case, precipitating a tongue-in-cheek, rollicking musical comedy, rich with outlandish characters, situations and one-liners.  Good, hearty fun for the cast and the whole family.

 

Fabulous characters, like battling Realtors (or are they?), the portly Mayor and Town Counsel, Lord and Lady Muck and their "Rich and Famous" family, Boris Belchalot with his weird group traveling from "Ombia" (or are they?),  "CIA" spies in farcical situations, Professor Knowitall ("Fear") who holds the key to the mystery and more, make

for a rewarding, entertaining experience for cast and audience.

Performance Package information

​

Fun adventures at Camp Runamuck, from the frazzled parents and kids, to the varied groups of boys and girls, counselors and directors at the camp.  There are cute songs about writing Letters Home, with one group being homesick and the other group loving every minute of the same camp; a “first love” song, scary fireside stories and audience involvement in the “Runamuck Chant”.

 

Nutshell plot:

The play opens in the last days of the school year with the Parents and their Children sick of each other and sing “I’m Mad, Really Mad!”.  There are some amusing scenes showing what different families go through choosing different types of camps.  The rest of the musical takes place at the camp.  “Are You Ready for the Summer?”  We meet the Camp Counselors who are varied character types (nerdy, show-off, dreamy, romantic, spoiled, sporty). 

 

Runamuck is usually a girls’ camp, but this summer they are having boy campers too and so there is a funny song showing the boys’ and girls’ reactions to having to share the same camp.  The younger campers arrive and display their different character types in a song, “Summer Camp Kids”:  the Spoiled kids, Scared kids, Rough kids, Fun kids.  There is a First Date scene (“Somewhere a Boy is Waiting”), a “writing home” song about being home-sick “Dear Mom and Dad”, a vignette about spreading “Rumors”; a funny Camp Director and some scary fireside tales.  The audience is involved in the “Runamuck Chant” .The Finale is the tearful goodbye.

 

There is one set: the outdoors at the camp in the woods. 

Other scenes can take place in front of curtain with few to no props.

It’s a 1930-40’s style musical about a child being raised on her grandparents' Farm.  There are some comic Farm scenes and Market Day scenes.  Melanie runs away to the Big City seeking her father and meets interesting characters on the way.  She is helped by some street urchins. And, of course, there's a "Happy Ending!"
