When 8-year-old Lily Polkadot moves to the small town of Rockaway, she finds that she’s the only one with polka dot skin in her new all Square school. She’s subject to constant bullying and segregation until she meets a shy Square boy named Sky. An unexpected friendship blossoms as the two children learn that differences are to be celebrated because they’re what make us unique. The musical serves as an engaging history lesson on the Little Rock 9, a group of African American students that enrolled in an all-white school in 1957. Ages 5 and up.
