Alley Theatre Now Touring OSKAR AND THE BIG BULLY BATTLE

Alley Theatre will be premiering Oskar and the Big Bully Battle! to enrich schools and teach elementary children about making healthy choices in the face of bullying. The school tour will be traveling to 50 schools, providing 82 assemblies February 10 through March 28. Public performances will be the Alley Theatre's Neuhaus Stage at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 15. The story of Oskar, Frank and Beth was written by award winning playwright, Prince Gomolvilas with guidance from with Palo Alto Unified School District.

This is the regional premier of Oskar and the Big Bully Battle! after having had a successful multi-year run in over 150 schools in northern California.

When Frank steps on 10-year-old Oskar's brand new shoes, wacky mayhem ensues. A simple accident spirals out of control and results in Oskar moving from bullying behaviors to being a bystander to finally deciding to become an upstander.
