Book by Robby Sandler with Jess Kaufman
Music by Lizzie Hagstedt
Lyrics by Robby Sandler
Directed by Laura Brandel
Based on the award-winning (and 2023 JewCie-Award-nominated) Hereville graphic novels by Barry Deutsch, this female-driven, family-friendly musical follows Mirka, an 11-year-old girl in a small Orthodox Jewish town. When Mirka meets a witch in the woods, she triggers a series of events that force a reckoning with the memory of her mother, her fractious relationship with her stepmother, and a meteor that could destroy Hereville altogether!
At its core, Hereville is a musical for family audiences; a love story between a stepmother and stepchild as they navigate the formation of their blended family. Rated PG for scary situations and content relating to grief and loss.
