February 16th - 19th ~ OGT’s YOUNG AUDIENCES production, ALEXANDER AND THE  TERRIBLE HORRIBLE NO GOOD VERY BAD DAY. This musical, based on and written by author Judith Viorst -- who penned the best selling popular children’s book of the same name is a fun filled look at the famously rotten day suffered by 6 year old Alexander who just can’t seem to get anything right. With a large cast and delightful musical score by Shelley Markham, no parent or grandparent will want to miss accompanying their youngster to this fun-filled show.

April 1st ~ GOLOSHES  OF FORTUNE ~ This March, the theatre will continue its highly successful EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH production by bringing a lesser known Hans Christian Andersen story "GOLOSHES  OF FORTUNE" into the local elementary schools. This whimsical tale, adapted by Elizabeth Wong, follows a enchanted pair of galoshes as they travel from Denmark, into outer space and back again on the feet on unsuspecting children whose wishes are granted by the magic of the galoshes—with sometimes disastrous, and always hilarious results. The production will be presented on the Orphan Girl Stage on April 1st.

April 27th - 30th ~ Shakespeare’s TWELFTH NIGHT will showcase the Orphan Girl Theatre teen actors in the TEEN CLASSIC production.  One of Shakespeare’s most popular comedies, TWELFTH NIGHT tells the story of a pair of shipwrecked twins, around whom various forms of mischief, mistaken identity and mayhem revolve. Some of Shakespeare’s most irresistible characters are involved in the comic confusion which teaches us all a few lessons about love, longing and the perils of romantic illusion.  

Spring 2006 ~  SARAH PLAIN AND TALL by Joseph Robinette to the OGT stage in their FAMILY production. Based on the award winning novel by Patricia Maclachalan the story -- set in the early 1900s -- is that of a Kansas widower and his two children who place an ad seeking a wife and mother. A young woman named Sarah Wheaton responds, describing herself as plain and tall. This heartwarming play re-enacts the exciting and wondrous month that Sarah spends with the family, and the lifelong lessons they learn from one another. 

December 2006 ~ The Orphan Girl Theatre will round out the season with a HOLIDAY production in December.
