**Cass arrives home from school with one thing on the brain: the best sleep over of all time. That is what's at stake! Tonight, this very night, they may have to call the world record folks because no one has had fun like Cass and Ray are about to have fun.** We've got pizza on the way. We've got s*uperheroes to be*. We've got a magical TV remote that can control people. We've also got to find out if being best friends means you agree on everything all the time, or if wiggle room is allowed.
Rachel Bublitz's imaginative and spunky play delights young and not-young alike with her fresh, joyful approach to navigating some of childhood's tougher moments. The audience gets to serve as confidant, sleuths in identifying those tricky spots, and dancing puppets controlled by said magical remote. The kids get to have a great time, while maybe not even realizing they're learning some important stuff along the way: respecting body boundaries, learning to read cues from others, and navigating conflict because HELLO 'smores vs. ice cream is serious business.
Age sweet-spot for the audience kids: 4-8
