"Song-Optional" Musical, ages 6-13

A group of pre-teens form their own Babysitter’s Club. It’s perfect - have fun and get rich! But then the Kids they are watching get it into their heads that the Babysitters are actually…vampires! Do the Sitters actually have secret powers that the Kids are noticing? Or is it just their imaginations?

Comedy rules as the kids devise one trick after another to reveal the Sitters’ ‘secret’. But when the kids think they have a monster in their closet, it’s the Babysitters who help them conquer their fears. It’s a slumber-party like never before! Great parts for both boys and girls!

This musical gives every student their own star-turn in the spotlight, and a solo song if they wish! We also do exciting theater exercises that build confidence and creativity in a supportive, lively setting.

“THE BABYSITTER’S CLUB” is one you’ll love to join!
