This is Philip, reporting from the rehearsal room, about the upcoming STOCKTON performance, featuring a cast of talented Monkeys, directed by the fantastic Kate Staiger. Kate is one heck of a director, keeping all the monkeys in line, even when squabbles break out like who gets the next banana!

Music? You bet there’s music. This highly musical cast has a total of six songs in the show! Probably the most I’ve ever seen performed by a cast of Monkeys. Whether it’s a song about a girl falling into a trash heap, an elevator that keep going up and down, or a serious take on stopping violence, these Monkeys are hee-hawing and hootin-n-hollerin their jowls out.

Pictures? Why yes, this field reporter has managed to get actual footage of the Monkeys in rehearsal.

As you can see, sometimes, fights break out over who gets to play the lead role!

This story featured a monkey who kept tripping and turning into various hilarious characters!

Such as…a Karate Fighter!

A clumsy clown!

And what’s this…some kind of monkey? Well, he already was a monkey, so not much to see here!

Unfortunately, sickness has invaded the cast of Stockton.
Why this actress playing a girl named Litzy can barely keep the tissues in her nose!

It doesn’t help that her two friends keep feeding her more banana splits!

We’ll have more footage of the Stockton rehearsals coming in, including some monkeys in gospel CHOIR robes bringing down the house.
Stay tuned, you lovely people!
