Featuring a book and lyrics by Michael Lluberes and music by Jared M. Dembowski, readings will be offered at 3 PM and 7 PM.

Directed by Lluberes (NYMF's The Boy in the Bathroom), the all-child cast includes Tony Award recipient Milly Shapiro (Matilda), Charlotte Rose Masi (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof), Christopher Martinez (Radio City Christmas Spectacular tour), David Austin, Gabby Gutierrez (South Pacific), Ian Etheridge (The Great Country), Molly Ilana Richardson (Our Town), Peyton Ella (The Sound of Music Live!) and Stephen Jack Sayegh (Bye Bye Birdie).

Musical direction is by Laura Bergquist (Allegiance).

This avant-garde musical, according to press notes, "explores the inner thoughts and feelings of elementary school students as they navigate their way through the trials and day at tribulations of an ordinary school."

Tom Nordyke, Ole Zupetz and Jennifer Isaacson produce.
