Jon and Al Kaplan wrote the acclaimed SILENCE! THE MUSICAL as well as CONAN the BARBARIAN: THE MUSICAL. This follows a series of single web videos such as Conan the Barbarian, Junior High School Musical, and RoboCop the Musical.

The Help is a 2011 drama film adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel of the same name. The film is an ensemble piece about a young white woman, Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, and her relationship with two black maids during Civil Rights era America in the early 1960s. Skeeter is a journalist who decides to write a controversial book from the point of view of the maids (known as the Help), exposing the racism they are faced with as they work for white families.
