Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse

Stage One opens its 2000-2001 season with Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse, adapted by Kevin Kling from a book by Kevin Henkes. Here comes Lilly, crashing through her world as the girl who loves EVERYTHING! (except little baby brother, Julius) Whether it’s talking backwards, wearing disguises or standing up to bullies, Lilly is the kind of friend that any mouse would love to have. But when her granny gives her the ultimate gift–a purple, plastic purse that plays music and stores star-shaped sunglasses–Lilly goes too far. Can she learn from her parents and a cool teacher that there is a time and place for all things, even her special purse?
