<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Centaur","serif"">Sara Crewe is one of the most beloved fictional heroines, and June Walker Rogers has brought her to life in this funny, sad, wonderfully imaginative adaptation. In this story,
from the same author of <i>The Secret Garden</i>, audiences will identify with Sara as she begins her adventures in "Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies"; laugh with her as she brings happiness to others; weep with her as her fortune changes from
rich girl to poor orphan; and rejoice with her when strange events bring still another reversal of her destiny.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Centaur","serif"">The classic 1987 motion picture fantasy bursts onto the stage in this unforgettable theatrical experience. Josh Baskin is sick of being an awkward kid. At a carnival, he makes
a wish to the Zoltar machine to become "big". To his shock, his wish is granted. After an understandably awkward beginning, Josh is forced to do "adult" things like getting a job and a girlfriend. In the end he discovers there's much more to being an adult
than he's bargained for, and learns we must all grow up at our own pace, in our own time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
