A Story about the Power of Creativity, Art, and Friendship

In Scaredy Kat Presents, 11-year-old Kathryn’s social anxiety has alienated her from her school classmates. She’s nervous, fearful, and panicky around them so they give her the nickname of Scaredy Kat. After school, Kathryn retreats alone to her basement with her two passions: Alfred Hitchcock films and stop motion animation. When a new neighbor, Nadia, is forced to spend her afternoons at Kathryn’s house while her mom is working, Nadia’s keen interest in art could be the secret to Kathryn’s empowerment.

The 2020 winner of The Purple Crayon Players PLAYground Festival – Scaredy Kat Presents will perform on the Playhouse stage for one performance only THIS Sunday, March 5th at 2PM.
