The Murfreesboro Little Theatre starts of its 60th season at Mills-Pate Arts Center with Miss Nelson is Missing!

Miss Nelson is Missing! adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher, is based on the book by Harry Allard. It tells the story of Room 207, which is Miss Nelson's class on their way to preparing for the Big Test. The only problem is that this class is just completely rotten! They refuse to listen to Miss Nelson about anything! What happens when Miss Nelson goes missing and the meanest substitute teacher on the planet, Viola Swamp, comes in to take over Room 207? The class bands together to go on a hunt to find Miss Nelson, but will they find Miss Nelson? Will they pass the Big Test? Will they survive Viola Swamp?
