Our goal is to create an engaging and educational musical that caters to young visitors of Plymouth, Massachusetts, providing an enriching experience for children from kindergarten through grade 5. This musical will offer a unique opportunity for kids to learn about the early American history of Plymouth and the pilgrims. To achieve this goal, we aim to secure financial support from local Plymouth businesses and present the play at the Spire Center in downtown Plymouth, MA, with accessible ticket pricing of $5 per adult, $3 per accompanied child over the age of 4, and free admission for children aged three and under.
We’ve done a lot since 2017. We now have a working script and a musical soundtrack, but there’s still more to do. We are in talks with a choreographer who was a finalist from the FOX TV show “So You Think You Can Dance,” and we need backdrops to be made. We know how tight budgets are in 2023, but we must ask for your generous donation to help make our dream a reality.
