Diary of A Worm, A Spider, and A Fly

It’s a bug’s life in this rock-n-roll romp that captures all the droll humor and whimsy of the wildly popular books by Doreen Cronin! Diary of a Worm, A Spider, and A Fly (March 2 – April 5, 2015) has book, lyrics, and music by Joan Cushing, who brought us The REP’s Junie B. Jones and A Little Monkey Business. Spider waits anxiously to shed his skin; Worm feels self-conscious and embarrassed for having no legs; and Fly’s 327 brothers and sisters drive her so crazy that she can hardly focus on schoolwork. Whether the dream is being able to stand on your own two feet or a dream about superhero powers, this hysterical coming-of-age musical will have the whole family cheering on the dreams of the quirky crawlers, as they face problems and milestones common to us all.

The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg

During the Civil War, a 12-year-old boy who never even owned a pair of shoes steps up to become a hero by saving his older brother at the Battle of Gettysburg. Then he helps lead the Union to victory! Sound too heroic to believe? It’s true. At least mostly true. You see, Homer P. Figg does not always tell the whole truth about, well, anything. But from Maine to Pennsylvania, facing Union soldiers and Confederates, Underground Railroad conductors and circus ringleaders, Homer will tell any tale it takes to save his brother. Tom Isbell has adapted Rodman Philbrick’s Newbery Honor–winning book into a humorously staged story of Homer’s journey through thieves, spies, and scallywags as he makes his way through history.

The Borrowers

This enchanting new play by Charles Way is based upon the award-winning children’s literature classic by Mary Norton. Meet Arrietty Clock- she is a typical tween yearning to experience the grown-up world. The only difference? She and her tiny family live on dollhouse furniture under the floorboards. When their home is discovered, they are forced into the giant universe outside and Arrietty gets a bigger adventure than which she could have ever wished.
