What do you do when you’re living in Shakespeare’s shadow? You write the world’s first musical, of course! Something Rotten! JR. is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy set in the Renaissance, where two struggling playwright brothers turn to an unlikely idea—singing, dancing, and acting… all at once.
This one-hour, PG-rated adaptation of the Broadway smash hit is packed with clever wordplay, show-stopping musical numbers, and outrageous fun. Featuring a cast of energetic young performers entering grades 7–9, Something Rotten! JR. brings big laughs and Broadway flair to the stage. It's a show the whole family will enjoy—don’t miss your chance to see the Renaissance get rocked! |
