The Little Star That Could (Gr. 1 - 3) 

An average star is born from a great cloud of gas and dust. We follow his journey through space, searching for planets and a name for himself. He encounters stars of all sizes and temperatures, including a hot blue star and the double stars Goldie and Sapphire, but none of them can give him any planets. Finally, the Milky Way speaks to him and reveals where his planets have been hiding. His planets tell him all about themselves and give him his special name (no, I'm not going to reveal it here: you'll have to come to see the show!).

Starsigns (Gr. 8 - adult)

The astrological signs take their names from the star patterns people found long ago in a sky they considered sacred and influential in the affairs of Earth. Although we see things differently today, we can still go outside and find these patterns in a sky filled with signs and stories of our own making. And those stars can still guide us, not from the pages of a newspaper, but in real ways that can link us with the past and lead us to the stars themselves.
