PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Theatre Macon is excited to announce auditions for a socially distanced Youth Artists’ Company production of the beloved children’s book The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley.

​

SYNOPSIS

Stanley Lambchop is your ordinary, everyday ten-year-old until the bulletin board on the wall above his bed comes loose and falls right on top of him. The next morning, Stanley wakes up flat. In a whirlwind musical travelogue, Stanley — the ultimate exchange student — scours the globe for a solution to his unusual problem. He's stamped, posted and cancelled from Hollywood and France to Honolulu and beyond, all in an effort to become a three-dimensional boy once more.
