Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Flea
by Rami Vamos
A very tiny, but mischievous flea, takes control over the mind of an innocent Suzuki violin teacher. The teacher, who used to devote hours to playing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, wants nothing more than to tickle and annoy dogs. This is very unfortunate for his students who are trying desperately to prepare for their big concert! Come help them get their teacher back on track.

by Matt Van Brink & Jennifer S. Greene
with Conservatory students Christopher Landy, Katie Suss, Nicholas Politi, Hannah Hanau, Zac Shearon, Grace Smythe, Natalia Morato, & Renz Toledo; and faculty Yousif Sheronick, Tom Cuffari, and Matt Van Brink
Based on Fritz Haeg's Animal Estates, in this musical by Matt Van Brink, a purple martin returns to New York after his yearly migration, and enlists the help of Animal Estates Realty to find the perfect home. But the realtor shows him the habitats of other animals ... and ones that are already occupied! It's fine to meet the neighbors, but this bird's got to make a nest.
