This is the endearing classic about a mouse named Stuart Little who is born into an ordinary New York family. All the charm, wisdom and joy of the E.B. White original are captured in this adaptation by Joseph Robinette, who also dramatized the highly acclaimed stage version of Charlotte's Web. The many adventures—both big and small—of Stuart Little are brought vividly to life in this story theatre presentation. The acting ensemble plays many human and animal roles in a series of delightful scenes that make up the marvelous maneuverings of a mild-mannered mouse trying to survive in a "real people's world." Ease of staging along with flexible casting make Stuart Little perfect for small touring groups or for large-cast productions.

When Prince Edward changes clothes with Tom Canty, the beggar boy, no one in the audience will have difficulty in telling the actors apart, but through the magic of theatre, everybody on the stage is convinced that Tom, now dressed in royal clothing, is actually the heir to the throne. The true prince, now dressed in rags, is booted out of the palace. From here on out, the two lads lead an extraordinary existence as each tries to get along in a strange new world. This exciting dramatization of Mark Twain's beloved classic is easy, convenient and attractive to stage.

Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney's The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. With music by eight-time Academy Award winner, Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater and a compelling book by Doug Wright, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including "Under the Sea," "Kiss the Girl" and "Part of Your World." Ariel, King Triton's youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems, and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.

This family drama begins in 1939 London during the evacuation of almost two million British children and other vulnerable populations to the countryside to keep them safe from predicted German air raids on industrial centers. The play centers on 15-year-old Serena Moffitt and her younger brother, Joseph, who are sent from their working class suburb of Brixton to the county of Devon where they end up billeted with the Hargreaves, an upper-class family struggling to maintain their fortune with two sons who are close in age to the Moffitts. Serena finds herself at odds with the older Will, as stubborn and smart as she is, while Joseph discovers his first best friend in Will's highly dramatic 10-year-old brother, Donald. As mysteries are solved and fears are exposed, the young characters navigate their way through the intricate terrain of adolescence. Set against the backdrop of World War II, the Moffits and the Hargreaves uncover truths about friendship, family and love, and find that even after great loss, the possibility of hope remains.
