June 21, 2021 MUSICAL #9 | Sneak Peek!!
This week we wanted to give you a very special sneak peek at our upcoming musical, "The Ballad of Nelly (Who Nobody Knew)"

This musical tells the story of Nelly, a cool and clever girl who lives in a world of pegasi, pirates and powerful magic. She travels the world, going on adventures and meeting folks from all walks of life, always in the search of a place she can call home. Her tale is told in a series of songs performed by a character known only as The Storyteller. He seems to know an awful lot about Nelly, and as he sings we get a peek into her life and times.

Look out for the full musical coming NEXT MONDAY, June 28th!!
