Seatbelts everyone! THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS® celebrates its 25th anniversary with an all-new musical adventure. Ms. Frizzle’s students are putting on a play about global warming, and they need some cold, hard facts. The Friz and her reptilian sidekick, Liz, know just where to find them! This is no ordinary field trip, as a hop on the Magic School Bus takes the class and the audience on a whirlwind tour. From the Arctic to the equator, they see telltale signs of climate change and learn how conservation, recycling and alternative energy can make a positive difference. Recommended for ages 4-10.

PUMP BOYS AND DINETTES
Presented by Brieabi Productions
March 23-31
Anderson Township

On Highway 57, somewhere between Frog Level and Smyrna, stands a gas station. Across the blacktop is a roadside eatery called the Double Cupp Diner. The three guys at the station, Jim, Jackson, and L.M., have been known to do some auto repairs, but only when aided by quantities of time and beer. The Cupp sisters, Prudie and Rhetta, celebrate their home cooking with the same zeal they bring to being neighborly with the boys. This feel good, toe-tapping musical is a tribute to life by the roadside!

Directed & choreographed by Arlene Borock
Vocal direction by Gloria Murry
Produced by Teresa Johns

Cast: Jimmy Curtis as Jim, Andy Vest as Jackson, Shawn Toadvine as L.M., Amy Grace Curtis as Prudie & Pam Day as Rhetta
