Parents Just Don't Understand: The Musical!

Are we there yet? The Stathem family is on a loooong car trip, giving everyone lots of extra time to reminisce about the past 12 months. Here is a collection of hilarious (and often too close to the truth) scenes and songs that all families are going to be able to relate to. This easy-to-stage comedy is a lighthearted look at a "greatest hit list" of classic family moments. Remember when Dad tried to teach you to drive? Or Mom decided that she would help pick out your wardrobe? The kids sing the “Back to High School Blues” only to have Mom and Dad sing “They Are Gone Gospel” the minute the kids are out the door. Grandma and Grandpa enjoy “Hippity Hop Grandma Rap,” and the daughter watches her dreams of a sweet sixteen birthday bash get crushed while at the fish and game hall. Who knew Grandpa would really re-gift that “Best Grandpa Ever” mug? Using minimal sets and a very flexible cast and chorus, "Parents Just Don't Understand: The Musical!" will have your audience in stitches while also challenging your cast to not just play teenagers, but also adults. Full evening.
