Mile Square Theatre to Present PRINCESS K.I.M.

By:

Hoboken Children's Theater and Mile Square Theatre have joined forces to become one organization, the new Mile Square Theatre. And their first collaboration together is a production of a wonderful new musical for kids, Princess K.I.M. The Musical, based on Maryann Cocca-Leffler's popular book, Princess K.I.M. and the Lie That Grew.

The creative team for this production is led by Hoboken Children's Theater founder and Mile Square Theatre Education Director Chase Leyner. Ms. Leyner says, "Kids will love following the journey of this little girl who lets her imagination get away from her and tells a little lie that turns into a big problem. Our wonderful cast of professional actors will make this a show our family audience will not want to miss." Directed by Broadway veteran Don Brewer and Musical Direction by Scott Pearson, this production will be professional theatre for the whole family.
