Description: Join Esme as she embarks on the adventure of a lifetime. It might be somewhere in outer space, perhaps another dimension or a magical land, or maybe all three rolled into one amazing new world! This is an original production written by Lisa Markowitz and features original music by BAAY alumni Soren Ficklin. Get ready for singing, acting and dancing galore as Esme searches for meaning while meeting some crazy characters along the way. Calling all dreamers to the station!
