Mark your calendars and bring the family to see our production of
Judith Viorst's
"Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"
Book and Lyrics by Judith Viorst, Music by Shelly Markham
Produced by special arrangement with The Dramatic Publishing Company of
Woodstock, Illinois
The Musical was commissioned by the John F. Kennedy Center for the
Performing Arts and was first produced in 1998 at the Kennedy Center
Alexander is having a bad day. A terrible day. A horrible day. To be quite
honest, it's a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. But then,
everybody has bad days, sometimes. In this delightful adaptation of her
popular book, Judith Viorst sets Alexander's rather trying life to music and
brings to the stage one of America's feistiest characters. Not only does
Alexander wake up with gum in his hair, but his mother forgets to pack him
dessert, and his best friend decides he's not his best friend anymore. And
if that's not bad enough, Alexander's brothers don't have any cavities
but-he does. And just when it can't get any worse, there are lima beans for
supper and -yuck!-kissing on TV. It is enough to make anyone want to go to
Australia. Alexander's struggles with life's daily dramas will not only
entertain but educate young audiences as they identify with Alexander and
the obstacles he encounters, encouraging them to share their feelings and to
realize that bad days happen-even in Australia.
