"Horrible
Monsters"
is
what our aging but trusty (but elderly) postman must deliver mail to. A
comical (and non-scary) view of high self-esteem, all sung to lilting and
classical waltzes by Johann Strauss!

"Humpty-Dumpty:
the Early Years"
is
a lyrical (and laughable) look at the rise and 'fall' of one of fairy-tale-dom's
most egg-citing characters... beginning at birth, going through his teens,
middle age, and right on up to 99! Featuring the voice talents
of multiple Big Easy Award-winner Ricky Graham! (P.S. only
the audience will be 'cracked-up'!)

"2004:
The Ugly Duckling Odyssey"
has
our vague little bird with pelicans as original parents ("Ralph
& Alice"), and finds his true mom to be an egret. The
children get to actually meet, greet, and name him in this all-bird
cast!

"DePaul
da Pirate"
takes a typical pirate
story and allows the local humor to
run amuck! With unique Sea-Monster (the "Crocto-pus"),
Ethel
Mermaid, "Stella" The State Bird, and a surprise ending; our
hero is (fictitiously) the one who originates
"throwing stuff from a Mardi
Gras float!"

"The Shy
Re-Cy"
teaches
a very inhibited nephew (and the audience) the important process
of recycling... a rolicking trek to the North Pole in what
ever
month
you book it!!

Goose Gets a Boost"
has
our audience as members of "the classroom", assisting our frazzled "substitute
teacher" and a forgetful gator who cannot remember his nursery rhymes (voiced

youngster moves into a new neighborhood encountering several "un-neighborly"

"Tiz
(Almost) the Season"
shows
us a very grumpy old man who gloats that he "doesn't have to buy presents
anymore," until "Hannah, the Holiday Goblin" (voiced by Big Easy

spirits)!!
