The Springfield Little Theatre Education Department is excited to present GIANTS IN THE SKY - A NEW CHILDREN'S MUSICAL in its 2023-2024 Education Series!

This magical story explores the world of Giants who live above the clouds. Ever since they left Earth a long time ago, the Giants have made a life up above where their job is to keep the sky beautiful. They polish the stars, poke the clouds to let it rain and paint the sunsets. But there is one curious Giant who wonders what life is like on Earth, so she steals a key to the locked up “beanstalk” and embarks on an adventure down below!

GIANTS IN THE SKY - A NEW CHILDREN'S MUSICAL will be directed by Shannon Sherrow.
