Synopsis

Based on the book by Nancy McArthur Michael's closet has exploded!

At least, that's what it looks like, with all the baseball cards, heaps of crumpled paper, clothes strewn about, and piles of smelly, dirty socks everywhere!

It's the battle of the bedroom, as his younger brother (and roommate) Norman fights to keep his spotless territory from the invasion of Michael's mess.

But that was before the appearance of their pet plants!

Michael's pile of stinky socks disappears faster than you can say "My goodness, what an enormous plant," as Mom and Dad struggle to keep the bizarre botanical wonders under wraps...What would the neighbors think?

A fun-filled musical, based on the popular book series, celebrating individuality, brothers working together, and the most disgusting plant food ever!
