This vibrant musical features a score infused with Dixieland jazz and Cajun rhythms, reflecting the rich cultural backdrop of New Orleans. Directed by Nathaniel P. Claridad, the cast includes Jordan Leah Embrack as Petite Rouge, Michael Perrie Jr. as Claude, and Stephen Russell Murray as TeJean.

Imagination Stage Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

Imagination Stage was founded as BAPA (Bethesda Academy of Performing Arts) in 1979 in response to the urgent need for arts education for young people. The company was renamed Imagination Stage in 2001 in anticipation of its move to its downtown Bethesda theatre arts center in 2003. Imagination Stage has grown from a handful of children in a single classroom to a full-spectrum theatre arts organization, with theatre productions by professional actors and artists. Unlike most children’s theatre companies, Imagination Stage commissions new works for children every year. These productions have been recognized with awards and productions by other companies around the world.
