After two years of performing virtually, The Off-Beat Players Inc, a Greenwich non-profit, inclusive musical theatre company for teens and young adults with differing abilities, have been busy rehearsing for not one, but two productions this summer.
The shows will be performed live and in person at Greenwich Country Day School.
The Seuss-A-Palooza starts on Saturday, July 23, with a 2:00pm performance of The Sneetches, followed by face painting, Seuss-themed crafts, games, prizes and more. The Sneetches music is by Lorenzo Palamo, text by Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss).
