A pop culture
phenomenon comes to the musical
stage! The Emmy Award-winning
1970's Saturday morning cartoon
series that taught history,
grammar, math, science and
politics through clever, tuneful
songs is not only making a
small-screen comeback,
instructing a whole new
generation to “Unpack Your
Adjectives” and “Do The
Circulation,” it’s lighting up
stages everywhere, from school
multi-purpose rooms to
university and regional theaters
all around the country.
Tom, a nerve-wracked school
teacher nervous about his first
day of teaching, tries to relax
by watching TV when various
characters representing facets
of his personality emerge from
the set and show him how to win
his students over with
imagination and music, through
such songs as “Just A Bill,”
“Lolly, Lolly, Lolly” and
“Conjunction Junction.”
