Synopsis

Chaos arises when letters begin to fall from a town monument and government officials ban them one by one.

The community depends on the strength of a determined teenage girl to fight for their freedom of speech.

Adapted from Mark Dunn’s 2001 award-winning debut novel, Ella Minnow Pea , this unique musical is part romance, part clever word game, and part adult fable that reminds us how precious our liberties are and how important it is to have the courage to stand up for what we believe.
