Taproot Theatre’s Road Company presents a free public performance of its touring show Bugs! by Melanie Godsey on Saturday, June 1st at 9:30am. Kicking off the PhinneyWood Pride Rainbow Hop, this performance takes place at Taproot’s Isaac Studio Theatre.
Things are snug as a bug in a rug at school until the new kid shows up with enviable expertise about bugs. All the students think Max is the bee’s knees. All of them, except Logan, whose jealousy turns into bullying behavior that’s as bad as a case of bed bugs. Will the other students realize they can’t just be flies on a wall? Can Max stand up to Logan’s bullying behavior? And is their room for new friendship on the playground?
Bugs! is a play geared towards elementary students about bullying prevention and celebrating differences. All ages are welcome! Tickets are free and seating is general admission, but registration is recommended as this will fill up! Doors open at 9am.
