our one-year-old hero,

and his friends, Chuckie, Phil & Lil and his cousin Angelica.

Whenever adults are around, the Rugrats act like real babies,but when they’re alone they drop the façade and talk to each other

with the vocabulary of five-year olds. As

Tommy and his pals wobble through life,

supported by legs not yet used to walking,

they show us the world as a baby views

and understands it. The Rugrats’ world is

one that exists below our knees; heremundane things and

events turn into

grand, comic

adventures.

Welcome to Heartsville High, set in

a world where everyone is gay, well

almost everyone! The big-man-on-campus

is the chess champion, and the captain of

the football team is made cool by being

cast as the lead in the school musical.

The students write a controversial show

called “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” about straight

people in the military, which becomes the

catalyst for a young man and woman

to fall in love. Enter Zanna, a

magical, musical fairy who,

with a wave of his wand,

brings true love to

one and all!

“ A m u s i c a l w i t h a

m o r a l , s u i t ab l e f o r

t e e na g e a u d i e nc e s , i n w h i c h t h e m o r a l i s d r a m at i ze d r at h e r
