This post was sponsored by the Christian Youth Theater of Phoenix. We are so excited to share about their production with our readership.

If you have kids who love to play pretend or would just like to treat your family to a weekend activity that’s out of the ordinary, Christian Youth Theater of Phoenix invites you to come experience The Dear Edwina Show…live from Paw Paw, Michigan and Edwina’s garage.

Edwina Spoonapple is a young lady with an unusual talent.  Some kids are great at math.  Others are gifted musicians.  But Edwina?  Edwina is an advice-giver extraordinaire!  She’s so good at giving advice that she hosts a weekly show out of her garage where she and her friends perform song and dance answers to the problems of today’s kids.

For families looking for unique, fun outings with their kids–look no further than live youth theater.  There is something magical about watching characters come to life as they sing and dance across the stage right before the eyes of children.  When the performance is by kids their own age it’s doubly entertaining.  This production features over 30 local performers between the ages of 8-17.

Dear Edwina, Jr. is hilarious and heartwarming. The zany premise of Dear Edwina, Jr. is brought to us by the writer and composer of Junie B. Jones the Musical. It features tons of upbeat music and characters that kids will be giggling about all the way home from the theater.  Helping Edwina answer her letters are all her neighborhood friends in Paw Paw and “special guests” like the family vampire, a 60’s girl group, and the Fairy Forkmother (don’t ask, just come see it!)  Along the way, the show presents the wonderful message that a child’s value is in who they are as a friend and a person–not in accomplishments or awards–as Edwina seeks fame and affirmation.
