When her mother dies, Sara Crewe is sent from India, where she was born, to a private school in London. She is banished to the garret when news arrives of her father's loss of fortune and his disappearance. With a creative imagination and spirited optimism, Sara survives to become an inspiration for girls and boys everywhere. Featuring musical underscoring and two songs, this is a perfect show for the entire family. It is ideal for holiday presentations. Originally produced by the New York State Theatre Institute.
