There are lots of different ways to tell a story and music is one of the best. In this delightful program, Wendy and singer/actor Ritchie Crownfield show what every writer should know about the essential elements of a good story—setting, character and conflict. With help from the audience, they present scenes from treasured stories adapted for musical theatre including Frog and Toad, The Cat in the Hat, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and The Secret Garden. Clever lyrics and memorable melodies will open new doorways to the pleasures of reading.
