The Hoover family has seen better days. Richard, the father, is a floundering motivational speaker, Grandpa’s been kicked out of his retirement home, and Uncle Frank’s been dumped by his boyfriend. Moody teenager Dwayne has taken a vow of silence, and overextended mom Sheryl can do little more than slap on a smile. When the youngest Hoover, energetic Olive, enters a regional children’s beauty pageant, the family wonders if their luck could change. They pile into an old VW bus and set off on a cross-country trek, chasing the coveted title of “Little Miss Sunshine.”

A heartwarming and hilarious musical adaptation of the beloved Academy Award-winning film, LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE celebrates the power of love, determination, and the joy of following your dreams, no matter the obstacles. With outrageously funny characters and an upbeat and catchy score, this delightful production will leave you cheering for the underdog and believing in the magic of family.
