Penelope the Pink-Nosed Puffin

It's the final game of the biggest competition in all of bird-dom, the Beak Bowl, and the final two teams are none other than the North Sea Puffins and the South Sea Penguins. Before the game starts, we notice that one of the Puffins, Penelope, stands out from her peers thanks to her unique pink nose. Her orange-nosed teammates prefer to downplay it, and the Penguins start to tease her. The game begins, and each team knocks out correct answers one after another. It's down to the final round, when suddenly team members aren't feeling well and need to back out of the game. Team Penguin makes an attempt, but they are unable to see it through. It's down to the wire for the Puffins, and they have one player who is well enough to play: Penelope. The final question is tough, and everyone doubts Penelope's ability to get it right. But of course, she does! With lessons in acceptance, respect, and good sportsmanship, this show demonstrates that our differences need not divide us. Approximately 20–30 minutes long, this musical includes a script with easy-to-learn lines plus five original songs: Ready to Play!; Puffins vs. Penguins!; Seasick; One of a Kind and In the Pink! The book and CD option includes the teacher's handbook, reproducible student parts, and performance/accompaniment recordings. The PDF and MP3 bundle includes the same materials digitally.
