About the Play
New teachers…new books…new faces! It's the very first day of second grade, and Lazlo S. Gasky is the new kid in school. When he doesn't look or speak quite like the others the teasing and taunting begins. With his new friend Ellie McSnelly the two teach their classmates a valuable lesson – one that's not in their schoolbooks. Adapted from Katie Couric's popular children's book, this uplifting new musical proves that being yourself is the best way to be.
Appropriate for ages 5 and up.
