Zach and Lilly arrive home from school upset about the troubles from their day — Zach’s friend is getting pushed around, Lilly is being left out by the “mean girls” who rule the school, and both of them are worried about being called tattle-tales. Granny tells them a seemingly unrelated whimsical, magical story... but it might just help them overcome the bullies they face at school. In Granny’s helpful story, Jack and Jill stand up to a mean and tough ogre and a wicked witch with the help of a wide variety of helpful fairytale friends. Full of fun roles and with easy production elements, this imaginative show explores the difficult problem of bullying and the many different forms it may take. Students will come away empowered with the knowledge that there are several creative solutions for all the different ways bullying manifests itself.

I thought this was a neat little lesson and a fun way to get kids to understand that bullying is not okay. And if anybody can walk away with that whole concept that “I can make a difference” and “I need to make it stop,” it‘s going to happen here. Wendy Richmeier, Paula Huser Children‘s Theater, Hays, KS
