Tracy Notes About This Show

There are many costume changes for this show, and we offer them all, including the convention of an additional change to dressy pastel outfits for the finale and bows, which takes place at the Worlds Fair. Request our Showplot™ for details.

Plot Synopsis

The story concerns the Smith family as they look forward to the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904. The family consists of Rose, the eldest daughter; Esther the middle daughter in love with the boy next door, Lon, the eldest child headed for Princeton; and the two youngest girls, along with Grandpa and Katie, the family cook. Problems arise when Father announces that his job is going to take him to New York and his intentions to move the family there. All is resolved in time with some of the most delightful music in recent times, made even more memorable by the MGM movie starring Judy Garland.

And by the way...

The answer to our very most frequently asked question is - NO!!!

The question is: Do you have a minimum order or do we have to rent a whole show?

We believe you should be able to order one hat, two props, an entire show, or anything in between - it's one of your basic theatrical freedoms.
