This STEM-fueled musical features excellent role models for young scientists; teachers and parents report that after the performance, kids are going home and engineering projects of their own! 

City Opera House will present TheaterWorksUSA’s family musical, Ada Twist, Scientist & Friends based on the books Rosie Revere, Engineer; Iggy Peck, Architect; and Ada Twist Scientist by Andrea Beaty. Performances take place on Saturday, November 29th at 11am. Tickets are $25 general admission or $10 for ages 10 and under and can be purchased by visiting cityoperahouse.org/ada25 or calling the City Opera House box office at (231) 941-8082.

Ms. Greer's classroom includes three inquisitive out-of-the-box thinkers. Rosie Revere has big dreams, Iggy Peck has a relentless passion for architecture, and Ada Twist's curiosity can drive her teacher crazy. On a field trip gone awry, they are faced with the ultimate test of their problem-solving skills that can only be conquered with teamwork. Recommended for ages 4-9.

Ada Twist, Scientist & Friends is written by Lauren Gunderson, the most produced living playwright in the U.S. (book), Bree Lowdermilk (music), and Kait Kerrigan (lyrics), and based on the book series by Andrea Beaty and illustrated by David Roberts. The original creative team includes direction by Peter Flynn, choreography by Marcos Santana (Broadway:  Rocky, Associate Choreographer), orchestrations by Lloyd Kikoler, original music direction by Dan Garmon; set design by Anne Mundell, and costume design by Jenifer Caprio.
