Something Rotten! Jr. is a hilarious musical comedy set in the Renaissance, where two brothers, Nick and Nigel Bottom, struggle to write a hit play in the shadow of Shakespeare’s fame. Desperate for success, they create the world's first musical—a bold, song-and-dance-filled masterpiece! Packed with witty dialogue, catchy tunes, and clever references to classic theater, Something Rotten! Jr. is a fun-filled show that celebrates the joys of creativity, sibling rivalry, and following your dreams.
Please note, that while there is some content in the full version of Something Rotten that would be considered inappropriate for students, this is the “Junior” version that is specifically designed for younger performers and the content is adapted and edited to be more appropriate.
