Hold onto your hearts — and your hashtags — “Stories” is back and bolder than ever. After debuting as a web series in 2021, this original musical now jumps to the stage with 18 songs and themes that speak to growing up today.
“Stories” cover real experiences of identity, mental health, racism, and more. It takes you into the inner worlds of five young people navigating life off and online. Created by The Theater Bug‘s Artistic Director Cori Anne Laemmel (along with Megan Murphy Chambers, Pascia Weeden), the show is bursting with hometown talent.

- a cast of 35 young performers
- music by Cori & Tyson Laemmel; arrangements by Laura & Tony Matula
