Freaky Friday, under the direction of Chris Grooms, presents a story of an overworked mother and her teenage daughter who magically swap bodies and have just one day to put things right again. By spending a day in each other's shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another's struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter. Freaky Friday is a heartfelt, comedic, and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic, based on the beloved 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films.

"I asked my five-year-old what came to mind when she thought of mothers and daughters. Her answer? 'Love.' Our hope is that whether or not you're a parent, that you soak in the timeless message that Freaky Friday delivers, and leave the theater holding your loved ones a little bit tighter." - Jenna Grooms, Freaky Friday Assistant Director

"This show is an upbeat and heartwarming story about family relationships and ultimately empathy. In today's world we could all learn a lesson from "walking in someone else's shoes..." - Larry Young, Freaky Friday Cast Member
