THE LIGHTNING THIEF

Based on the popular book by Victoria Kann and Elizabeth Kann, this is the tale of Pinkalicious, who can’t stop eating pink cupcakes despite warnings from her parents. Her pink indulgence lands her at the doctor’s office with Pinkititis, an affliction that turns her pink from head to toe–a dream come true for this pink-loving enthusiast.

Program Description

Playhouse Stage Company is thrilled to present two productions at the Historic Cohoes Music Hall for school time performances in the 2022-2023 school year! Intended for Elementary and Middle School audiences, these educational musicals provide a theatrical experience in the 4th oldest operating music hall in the country, while exposing students to the thrill of a live performance. We also provide groups a show specific curriculum based activity packet – with both pre and post show discussions to prepare your students for a fun and educational experience!

One month before the performance, we will provide 
your educators with an activity packet designed to engage students in the creative process behind bringing a show to life on stage and introduce students to the core themes of the productions!

Introducing students to live theatre gives them an important audience experience, helping them to learn the proper etiquette for live performances and public presentations. It also introduces them to a hobby and craft they may not have had access to previously. The arts teach collaboration, creative problem solving and self-expression, and our program gives students a taste of what is possible in the arts.
