Pond will extend and return to the Theater at Blessed Sacrament, beginning Sunday, March 13th at 11:00 am.

In PINKALICIOUS, THE MUSICAL 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.

Featured in the cast are Amber Dickerson, Sarah Mae Banning, Alexa Doggett, Joshua Betz and Todd Ritch. Alex James and Frances Hughes are the stage mangers.
