**Last summer’s Off-Broadway production was nominated for an Outstanding Musical from the Lortel Awards and for Best Family Show from the Off Broadway Alliance!**

“The Lightning Thief is an action-packed musical with heroic battles and mythological beasties.” Elizabeth Vincentelli, New York Post

“…everyone enjoyed the loud, funny, fast-paced , wonderfully imaginative musical. This show is a true family-pleaser…” Pete Hempstead, Theatermania

Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school…again. And that’s the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy’s Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he’s angered a few of them. Zeus’s master lightning bolt has been stolen and Percy is the prime suspect.

Now Percy has ten days to find and return Zeus’s stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves. Adapted from the book The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan.

 “Cows that type? Hens on strike!
Whoever heard of such a thing!” Farmer Brown cries.

When his granddaughter Jenny comes for a
visit, Farmer Brown declared the farm a “tech-free zone.” He
confiscates her laptop in the cold barn along with the shivering cows who use
her computer to type messages requesting blankets.

“No way,” replies Farmer
Brown. “No blankets!”

So the cows go on strike and the
chickens join them in solidarity. No blankets: no milk, no eggs!

Will Farmer Brown give in to the
animals’ demands? Will Jenny get her computer back? Find out in a hilariously
“mooooo-ving” musical about negotiation and compromise, based on the
Caldecott Honor Book by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin.

PIRATE
SCHOOL!  Welcome aboard, mateys! Pirate School!  is
in session.  This is a madcap, slap-dash pirate training academy that

Pirate School! is
a one-man, sea-faring vaudeville show that spoofs the Golden Age of Sail and
satisfies children’s universal curiosity about the briny buccaneers of yore.

Unlike any Science Comedy show on the
high-seas today, “Pirate School: The SCIENCE of Pirates!”
excites and motivates students grades K-5 with piratical fun while introducing
simple concepts outlined in the Next Generation Science Standards.

Historically, seafarers have pushed
science and technology forward and who better to captivate and expand
children’s horizons than the swaggering staff of Pirate School!? Concepts
addressed will include atmospheric pressure, wind and currents, aerodynamics of
a sailboat (Science), simple machines (Engineering), navigation (Math), and of
course the flight of a cannonball (Technology).

Combining important educational subjects
with the universal dream of swashbuckling adventure, this program aims to stir
the spirit and galvanize attention with a mischievous blend of interactive
clown theater, eccentric props, adept magic, a rich musical score, cartoon-like
sound effects AND SCIENCE! Recommended for grades K-5.
