Dory is a mischievous 6-year-old who doesn’t want to grow up. Her older brother and sister wish she’d stop acting like a baby, but when her siblings need her, it’s Dory’s imagination and bravery that will save the day. Russ Kaplan and Sara Wordsworth, the co-creators of Broadway’s a cappella musical In Transit and NYCCT’s Dear Albert Einstein, bring the popular children’s book to life as a coming-of-age musical comedy.
