Pinkalicious, The Musical recently had its run extended through April 29. Based on the book Pinkalicious by Elizabeth and Victoria Kann and featuring John Gregor's music and lyrics, the show is directed by Suzu McConnell-Wood.

"Pinkalicious can't stop eating pink cupcakes despite warnings from her parents. Her pink indulgence lands her at the doctor's office with Pinkititis, an affliction that turns her pink from head to toe - a dream come true for this pink loving enthusiast. But when her hue goes too far, only Pinkalicious can figure out a way to get out of this predicament," state press notes.

The creative team behind Pinkalicious includes Mary Hamrick (sets), Nathan Elsener (lights), Sarah Levine (costumes), Dax Valdes (choreography), Susan Manikas (stage manager) and Kerry McGuire (assistant director).
