Musical Theatre Workshop: Wipeout! Ages 12-17

Book by Flip Kobler and Cindy Marcus

Music and lyrics by Bill Francoeur

Wax up your surfboards, get out your beach blankets and catch the wave of this swell surf musical! It's just another sunny day at Avalon Beach until Mom and Pop announce they're selling their beloved surf shop and teen hangout. The snobbish developers from the nearby ritzy Cove want Avalon's stretch of sand… for a parking lot! But Mom and Pop's daughter Midge and all the loyal Avalon kids are determined—they're not going to let that happen! Riptide, the local kahuna, enters the big surf contest to vie for the grand prize money that will keep The Shack's doors open, but the crowd from the Cove will do anything to put the kibosh on Rip winning the prize money, including sabotage! When Riptide breaks his leg in a surfing accident (thanks to the conniving developer's son Reef), it's up to Midge to step onto her Billabong and go up against the big boys. Pop, a former surfing champion himself, comes through to help his little surfer girl in a sweet surfing cram session that gets all the kids amped for the big event! This surf musical—complete with hysterical onstage surfing—takes us back to a simpler time when life was keen, the music was cool and the world was about to change. Gnarly, dudes!
