SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK is the Emmy Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, science and politics through clever, tuneful songs and inspired a generation to learn. Now - thirty years later - it is not only making a small-screen comeback, instructing a whole new generation to "Unpack Your Adjectives" and "Do The Circulation," but also coming to life onstage as the Conejo Players Children's Theatre presents SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK LIVE!

This energetic revue is centered on a nerve-wracked schoolteacher fretting over her first day of teaching. As she tries to relax by watching TV, various facets of her personality come to life and emerge from the set, showing her how to win her students over with imagination and music, through such beloved songs as "Just A Bill", "Lolly, Lolly, Lolly" and "Conjunction Junction."

The multi-ethnic and multi-aged cast includes some familiar faces, as well as some new ones. Lalanya Gunn as the teacher is inspired and supported by all of your favorite SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK characters, portrayed by Teza Belmond, Davis Benz, Kuba Chyla, Nia Colemon, Jeremy Hanna, Allison Martone, Devin Milligan, Kayla Milligan, Kellie Porto, Cameron Reilly, Jessica Ryugo, Zach Schultz, Isabella Van Etten, Tasha Wenger, and Chris White. In merely 90 minutes, they will transport you all over the world with their renditions of these beloved classics:

  • Verb: That's What's Happening
  • A Noun is a Person Place or Thing
  • Three is a Magic Number
  • Sufferin' Till Suffrage
  • Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
  • Unpack Your Adjectives
  • Just A Bill
  • The Preamble
  • Ready or Not, Here I Come
  • Do The Circulation
  • Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla
  • Figure Eight
  • A Victim of Gravity
  • Conjunction Junction
  • The Great American Melting Pot
  • Interplanet Janet
  • Mr. Morton
