LMNOP is based on the novel "Ella Minow Pea" by Mark Dunn with music by Paul Loesel and book and lyrics by Scott Burkell.

Here's how it's billed: "Chaos arises when letters begin to fall from a town monument and government officials ban them one by one. The community depends on the strength of a determined teenage girl to fight for their freedom of speech. This unique musical is part romance, part clever word game and part adult fable that reminds us of how precious our liberties are and how important it is to have the courage to stand up for what we believe." The creative team also includes choreographer Marlo Hunter, musical director Jack Beetle, lighting designer Christina Giannelli, sound designer Andrew Harper, set designer Ryan McGettigan, costume designer Colleen Grady, music supervisor Dominick Amendum and orchestrations by Lynne Shankel.

Zilkha Hall at The Hobby Center is located at 800 Bagby Street in Houston, TX. For more information and tickets, call (713) 558-TUTS or visit TUTSUnderground.com.
