StinkyKid Britt never gets in trouble and loves making everyone happy!  She’s convinced her parents to take her friends Max, Hannah, Jen, Johnny, and Billy to the opening of the new MegaJumper 3000.  But when Britt gets a massive wad of gum stuck in her hair, she must rely on her friends to help her get out of the sticky situation before her parents find out and cancel the trip!  STINKYKIDS THE MUSICAL is based on the award winningStinkyKids® books and StinkyKids® characters: little stinKers who learn to make right choices through their childhood mistakes and live by the motto “Always be a leader of good.”® . In May 2012, STINKYKIDS THE MUSICAL was named Best Family Show of the 2011-2012 Season by the Off Broadway Alliance.
