Synopsis:
So, you think you know what Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn were up to back when they were supposed to be painting Aunt Polly's fence? Well, think again. Becky Thatcher clues us in on the real story. Everett Robert skillfully mixes the events as told by Mark Twain with scenes depicting what Becky Thatcher claims really happened- all in great fun and with charming humor. The playing of the traditional scenes provides a great opportunity to relive your favorite moments from "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" as retold by Mark Twain while experiencing something fresh from the imagination of one of our best new children's authors, Everett Robert. And you'll never guess how Becky Thatcher came to know so much!

Synopsis:
What happens when Alice forgets how to dream? That's what the characters in this refreshing adaptation of Lewis Carroll's timeless tale want to know. For one thing, Wonderland isn't quite as wonderful anymore; the sparkle fades and the characters lose their luster. But rumor has it that thoroughly modern Alice, who prefers the name, Allie, is coming back. There's hope yet for Wonderland if only the Cat can convince her that the imagination is not only real but necessary. This is the opportunity for your actors and your audiences to see Alice in a new light and follow her through the rabbit hole where she rediscovers the magic of Wonderland along with all your favorite characters from the White Rabbit and the Caterpillar to Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum, the Mad Hatter and the March Hair. And Wonderland wouldn't be complete without the Queen of Hearts with her Flamingo croquet mallets who still threatens to "cut off her head!" But Allie has a weapon of her own; a Triple Chocolate Espresso Mocha Latté with whipped cream.
