Velma Gratch is excited to
start first grade, but when she does she finds herself overshadowed by her
older sisters! While searching for a way to stand out, Velma discovers she
has a passion for butterflies! When one lands on her finger, she's in heaven!
But what is she to do when it doesn't fly away? A charming story of a girl
and a butterfly, and Velma's metamorphosis into something unique and
special. Book and lyrics are by Michelle Elliott, music
and lyrics are by Danny Larsen and direction is by Linda Ames Key.
The perennially
popular production Pinkalicious, The Musical with book by Elizabeth
Kann and Victoria Kann and music and lyrics by John Gregor returns this season. The production
opens November 1st and will perform at Vital on select Saturdays at 3:30pm through
April 26th. Tickets are $30 for regular seats and $40 for premium seats.
Pinkalicious can't stop eating pink cupcakes despite
warnings from her parents. Her pink indulgence lands her at the doctor's
office with Pinkititis, an affliction that turns her pink from head to toe -
a dream come true for this pink loving enthusiast. But when her hue goes too
far, only Pinkalicious can figure out a way to get out of this predicament.
