Directed by Amy Stevens (a former member of Youth Onstage), the musical features such traditional hits as “Hernando’s Hideway”, “Steam Heat” and “Hey There.” The story is set in the l940’s and deals with labor troubles in a pajama factory where worker demands for a seven and a half cent raise are going unheaded, as love blooms between Babe, the
complaint committee head, and Sid, the new factory superintendent.

Made up of over 60 teens from seven school districts in the Tulsa Area, Youth Onstage provides young people with an affirming environment which nurtures love of theatre through teaching such skills as acting, directing, producing, set design, make-up, lighting and sound. Past performances include 4 Summerstage shows: “Leader of the Pack,” “Smile,” “Babes in Arms” and “Schoolhouse Rock.”
