Oregon Children's Theatre presents PINKALICIOUS: THE MUSICAL

Following sold out shows from years past, Pinkalicious: The Musical is back and pinker than ever! You are what you eat in this sweet musical treat about a girl who eats so many pink cupcakes that she turns completely pink from head to toe. Doctor's orders say to stick to green foods only, but Pinkalicious just can't resist her beloved cupcakes! Dancing doctors, Broadway-style ballads, and a blues-singing little brother frost this musical with sweet delight!

"I cannot wait to see the audience of joyous families dressed in pink and children dancing in the aisles," said Director and OCT Artistic Director Stan Foote. "This musical is all about FUN." Families who attended previous productions of Pinkalicious at OCT have gone all out in their pink attire, so don't forget to plan your pink outfit accordingly! Special pink merchandise will also be available for purchase in our lobby to complete your "pinktastic" look.

Starting April 28th, stop by Cupcake Jones at their NW 10th or NE Alberta location to purchase a delicious, limited-edition, Pinkalicious cupcake in a super fun flavor, chosen by popular vote!

The cast features Kai Tomizawa as Pinkalicious, Skylar Derthick as Peter, Amy Jo Halliday as Dr. Wink, Grace Malloy as Allison, Gerrin Mitchell as Mr. Pinkerton, and Danielle Valentine as Mrs. Pinkerton.

The creative team includes: Stan Foote (Director), Darcy White (Musical Director), Kemba Shannon (Choreographer), Daniel Meeker (Scenic Designer), Ashton Hull (Costume Designer), Mark LaPierre (Lighting Designer), Duane Rodakowski (Sound Designer), and Emily Wilken (Props Master). Book by Elizabeth Kann and Victoria Kann. Music by John Gregor. Lyrics by John Gregor, Elizabeth Kann, and Victoria Kann.
