This is a musical for people soon applying to college and for adults trying to live through it, in other words, for audiences aged 13 to 93. The show runs from April 11th to April 28th, and sports 17 original numbers written by the team of William Electric Black and Gary Schreiner, both Emmy-winners.  No grown up wants their child to skip college to become the next Idol-like celebrity.

The Who were just a bunch of cocky pups when they sang “I hope I die before I get old.” Well, they’re still singing — and we’re still talkin’ about their generation. But even though the children of the 60s (who warned us not to trust anyone over 30) are redefining what it means to be active and aware contributors, they’re not immune to ageism (both internalized and cultural). This talk by blogger Ashton Applewhite on Monday April 8th, takes a look at stereotyping and discrimination on the basis of age — and why it’s so damaging.
