Flat Rock Playhouse Presents Pinkalicious: The Musical

Pinkalicious: The Musical is the perfect fall activity to help burn off that Halloween sugar-high! Performances continue through November 19th.

The fourth of five shows in the Playhouse’s Studio 52 Family Series 2017 schedule, Pinkalicious: The Musical tells the story of an outgoing young girl named Pinkalicious, who loves the color pink more than anything, especially when it is in cupcake form. Her parents warn her not to eat too many of the rose-toned goodies, but when Pinkalicious does, she turns pink from head to toe! When the pink does not wash off, she is told by her doctor to eat only green food to return to her normal shade. Instead, she gives into her temptation and eats just one more pink cupcake! This time, Pinkalicious has gone too far, and in order to return to normal, she knows just what she has to do. Through song, dance and a host of pinkerrific performers, Pinkalicious: The Musical will take audiences on a musical journey of the misadventures of turning pink!

Pinkalicious: The Musical will be directed by Matthew Glover, who trained from a young age in the Playhouse’s Studio 52 programming and has returned several times this year to choreograph Disney’s The Little Mermaid, directMusic of the Night: The Songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber, and music direct You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Glover notes, “Pinkalicious is appropriate for all ages. The young, and the young at heart, will all enjoy the hilarity of the adventures of Pinkalicious and her family. Children will relate to ‘Pink’ about disliking green food, and parents will understand the struggle, and comedy, of attempting to convince their children to eat that very same green food.” Though the musical is filled with fun and whimsy, it is also packed with important life lessons including: eating right, sharing with others, keeping promises, facing the pressure of stereotypes and bullying, and maintaining open and honest communication with family.

Pinkalicious: The Musical will run through November 19th at The Playhouse Downtown on Main Street in Hendersonville. Visit www.flatrockplayhouse.org for additional information.
