Future school performances in development!

Bring the multimedia presentation of Penny the One of a Kind Piano to your school. Children will explore the themes of finding your true home within yourself and dreams come true through curriculum in the weeks prior to the presentation. Suzanne Jackson begins by sharing her journey of becoming an author. Then she tells the story of transforming her book into a musical. During the book reading, the characters come to life through actors, pictures and video presentations from the musical performed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
