WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
"Don't think like an ugly duckling--dingy, drab and woebegone. Beauty needs unbuckling. Embrace your inner swan!" sings Goosetella to Serena, a fashion-challenged fowl searching for stardom in this glitzy rags-to-runway musical created especially for the elementary school set.

Appropriate for ages 4 through 8.
