Night Runner
by ike holter; Music by Kendall Barron
Night Runner is a children's musical that takes place in 1850s America, following the story of 12 year old Cora and her journey to freedom. After losing her brother, Marcus, Cora sets out into the woods where she meets The Nightrunner, an underground-railroad-superhero who guides her to the North where she can be free of enslavement for good. This educational story combines the world of the plantation with a superhero world. The music reflects this by combining traditional work songs and gospel with the synthetic nature of a superhero soundtrack.

Junie B. Jones
is not a crook
by Allison Gregory
Junie B. Jones is a kindergartner with a wild imagination. Her best friends are Grace and Lucille. She is SO excited to show off her new black furry mittens to all the other kindergarteners, until they get stolen at recess!! Junie B goes on to learn the struggles of the Lost and Found, and that 'Finders Keepers' isn't always the rule, in order to prove that she is not a crook! Along the way she also learns that you don't make friends by wearing furry mittens or fancy dresses, but instead by being a nice and caring person.
