Book by James Lapine

Synopsis: 
Fab Nobs are so excited to present the Victorian premiere of LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, based on the quirky 2006 hit film with a book by James Lapine (Into The Woods, Falsettos, Sunday In The Park With George) and a score by William Finn (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Falsettos).

The Hoover family has seen better days. Richard, the father, is a floundering motivational speaker, Grandpa's been kicked out of his retirement home and Uncle Frank's been dumped by his boyfriend. Moody teenager, Dwayne, has taken a vow of silence, and overextended mom, Sheryl, can do little more than slap on a smile. But, when the youngest Hoover, energetic Olive, enters a regional children's beauty pageant, the family thinks that their luck could change, and embarks on a cross-country trek, chasing the coveted title of "Little Miss Sunshine."
