About Bugz

Bugz is a fun musical play for young voices by John Jacobson and John Higgins.  In this rootin'-tootin' country-themed production, the Bugz are going on a picnic, and they're all pitching in.  The Lady Bugs are in charge of etiquette, the Army Ants will handle security, the Fireflies are in charge of lighting, and entertainment will be provided by the Bumble Bees.  Looks like they're all set.  But oh no!   The stink bug wants to come, too.  Whatever will they do?  See how the Bugz learn to accept each other with grace....even the stink bug.
