Between two towns, divided by a dotted yellow line and a reason no one can quite remember, an intrepid apprentice knight will find out how to bring everyone back together again in The Marshmallow Incident, adapted from the beloved book by Judi Barrett and Ron Barrett (creators of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs). With an original score by local recording artist Sean Mendelson, and a script adaptation by Playful People Artistic Director Katie D’Arcey, The Marshmallow Incident features a colorful cast of characters, a multitude of marshmallows, and a whole lot of laughs.
In The Marshmallow Incident, the Town of Left and the Town of Right are separated by a dotted yellow line, and no one on either side can remember how things got to be this way. The line is guarded by the Order of the Ambidextrous Knights, whose sole mission is to make sure no one crosses the line. When the line is accidentally crossed, the Knights spring into action — but their only ammunition is 50,000 boxes of marshmallows!
