The kingdom of Glump has been falling apart ever since the pampered emperor became wrapped up in his tasteless wardrobe. Not only is he a big headed clothes-hound, his three daughters are quickly becoming chips off the old blockhead. Enter two con artists, Wart and Hog, who devise their ingenious plan for fleecing the emperor and stripping him of his money. Naturally everyone pretends to see the magic cloth and the emperor’s new clothes, until a serving boy points out the truth and the selfishness of the emperor. Great music and great characters make this a must see show for the entire family.

 

Remember that this theatre does NOT issue individual tickets, I will have a group invoice.  Therefore, we will meet at 10:30am in front of the Mesa Arts Center's Eliott/Nesbit Theatre to gather as a group and be ready to go inside when they begin seating.   Please check in with me so that I know that you have arrived.  I have found that people are able to locate my identical twin daughters in a crowd easier than finding me.   They always dress alike, and their photographs can be seen at http://www.theparsonsfamily.com .   If you arrive late, it's possible that we've already gone into the theatre.     Let the theatre company representative know that you are in Jan Parsons' Homeschool group.   I always let them know if there are families that haven't arrived when we go into the theatre.  It is at their sole discretion, however, on when and where you are seated.  Most of the companies fill the theatre from front to back, row by row, so it's probable that you will not sit with our group if you arrive late.  They may choose to seat other groups before you.  If the show has already begun, they may require you to wait for an appropriate time so as not to disturb others, meaning that you may miss some of the show.
