Imagination Stage

Based on the book by Harry Allard Illustrated by James Marshall Book, music &amp; lyrics by Joan Cushing Directed by Janet Stanford
The fifth graders of Smedley Elementary School’s Room 207 are not just badly behaved–they’re the “worst kids of all!” No matter what their sweet and caring teacher Miss Nelson tries, they simply won’t listen (or stop throwing paper airplanes across the room). Fed up with their behavior, Miss Nelson leaves her class in the hands of dreaded substitute teacher Miss Viola Swamp, infamous for bringing “woe to those who misbehave.” Terrified of “the Swamp,” the kids must work together and with Detective McSmogg to find their kindhearted teacher and win her back. Tuneful and hilarious, this Imagination Stage original has been a hit at theatres from coast to coast.

ASL-Interpreted performance: Saturday, July 6 at 1:00 p.m.
Sensory-Friendly performance: Saturday, June 29 at 10:00 a.m.
